Case Study: Leading Sports Footwear and Apparel Company achieves automated IT and cyber risk and compliance with MetricStream

Leading Sports Footwear and Apparel Company Automates IT and Cyber Risk and Compliance

A leading global sports footwear and apparel company with 59,000 employees across 100+ countries needed to modernize its IT risk and compliance program. Fragmented, manual processes—reliant on spreadsheets and inefficient approval cycles—and the absence of a centralized GRC database limited visibility into risks and controls, a problem intensified by increased online access during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The company implemented MetricStream’s IT and Cyber Risk and Compliance Management solutions to create a single source of truth for risks, controls, assets, and processes. Automating workflows and control maturity assessments, standardizing processes across business units, and enabling real-time reporting and dashboards accelerated assessments and remediation, improved visibility and decision-making, and increased the speed, agility, and scalability of its IT GRC program.
