Overview

GRC for Jira helps regulated teams execute controls, manage risks, and track compliance directly in Jira.

It is designed for organizations that already run their operations in Jira and need a practical, auditable way to manage GRC activities such as control assessments, deficiencies, incidents, and risk tracking — without introducing heavyweight external GRC tools.

Used by enterprise customers, including large retail organizations, GRC for Jira scales from focused use cases (e.g. access reviews) to broader GRC programs.

GRC for Jira is ideal for:

  • GRC, Compliance, Risk, and Internal Audit teams

If your controls, risks, and evidence already live in Jira issues, GRC for Jira fits naturally into your workflow.
