Tweak Here, Tweak There

Sunday, August 7th, 2011

easy2comply is about to celebrate its 7th birthday, and this is a good time to clean up the horses and fix the many little things you have asked for during these years. So, without further notice, here are the tweaks we have adjusted recently:

  • Multi-lingual names: It is great to have a multi-language user-interface so international organizations can work easily on easy2comply. However, what was still problematic to some was that when the UI was compatible with their local language, the content was not.Thus, we are proudly announcing the new feature of translating the control and risk names to your local language and up to 3 languages simultaneously.
    These changes will affect the reports as well.

  • Simplified delete options: The delete option was one of those features that received considerable question.  What happened when you deleted?  Did you really delete it?
    So, in response, we have decided to clarify this sensitive feature. Now you will have two different options instead: “Hide” and “Delete”. We have also added a warning message, as well as instructions on how to undo these actions, if needed.

A Peek into Denmark’s GRC World with Nordic Risk Management ApS

Monday, August 1st, 2011

As part of easy2comply growth in key-markets, we have recently partnered with Denmark’s Nordic Risk Management ApS and their affiliate Risk Solutions ApS in our continuing effort to meet the GRC requirements of worldwide customers.

We were curious about the GRC environment in Scandinavia, and since you might be too we’re sharing an excerpt from a recent session we had with Risk Solutions ApS, Nordic’s software solution affiliate.

Q: What is the level of awareness of the GRC market in Denmark in general and what are the most common regulations in particular?
A:  The general awareness of the GRC challenges is rising in Denmark; though it has been on a pretty low level. To actively integrate the work on governance, risk and compliance will change the way companies think and the possibilities for companies to enjoy real business benefits.

Q: Are there any local regulations in Denmark that differ from EU common regulations?
A:  A very big part of the Danish regulations originate in common EU rules. However, all EU rules have to be implemented in local regulations. Most EU regulations are based on what is called “minimum standards”. The individual countries can choose to implement tougher. Most Danish regulations are tougher than prescribed in the common EU rules.
