iGRC Consortium iGRC Consortium web site April 2010 - South East England Development Agency awards iGRC Consortium additional funding for SMEs’ involvement in Information Infrastructure Protection R&D Programme. The UK’s South East England Development Agency has awarded the iGRC Consortium additional enabling funding for specialist Information Infrastructure Protection sensor companies wanting to support the programme. The aim of the SEEDA funding is to create a ‘critical mass’ of integrated capability geographically clustered in the SEEDA region which is able to offer solutions that can be rapidly deployed in as wide a range of customer environments as possible, thereby underpinning the new standard and speeding market access for the companies involved. Read the Additional SEEDA funding Press Release March 2010 - iGRC Consortium wins Technology Strategy Board and SEEDA funding for £1.7m Information Infrastructure Protection R&D Project Assuria is a key member of the iGRC Consortium which has won a £1.7m R&D project to develop an innovative model for integrated Governance, Risk and Compliance (iGRC) from the Government-funded Technology Strategy Board and the South East England Development Agency (SEEDA). The consortium was formed to respond to the Technology Strategy Board’s 2009 Information Infrastructure Protection funding competition. The programme brings together already highly developed GRC and related technologies into one sustainable integrated, dynamic governance, risk and compliance platform for network security information infrastructure protection. Assuria leads the sensors aspects of the programme. Managing Director, Nick Connor said - "The iGRC project is very exciting and challenging. Crucially, the Technology Strategy Board and SEEDA have enabled UK IT Security SMEs to sharpen the security edge of network infrastructure management. The iGRC project will substantially enhance the agility and dynamacy of control, and risk avoidance of network security." An initial technology demonstrator is planned for September / October 2010.
