Case Study: Leading Network Infrastructure Operating Company achieves integrated IT GRC and real-time risk visibility with MetricStream

Leading Network Infrastructure Operator Establishes an Integrated Approach towards Managing Multiple IT GRC Requirements

A North American–headquartered leader in domain services and internet security faced fragmented IT GRC processes: compliance tracked in spreadsheets and legacy tools, siloed threat management, limited visibility into third‑party risks, no centralized policy database or automated workflows, and no efficient way to aggregate IT risk and compliance metrics across divisions. The organization needed a unified, scalable solution to strengthen compliance with standards like ISO 27001/2 and NIST, manage vendor and operational risks, and deliver timely IT risk insights.

MetricStream deployed an integrated IT GRC platform in eight weeks, connecting threat and vulnerability scanners, consolidating policies, automating third‑party assessments, and harmonizing controls via UCF connectors. The implementation delivered streamlined, automated workflows, centralized policy management, real‑time risk and threat visibility through executive dashboards and heat maps, and improved compliance and control assessment capabilities across the enterprise.
