RiskWatch SOX Compliance
riskwatch.com
What it is
RiskWatch SOX Compliance helps organizations maintain continuous internal-control-over-financial-reporting evidence and support Sarbanes-Oxley Sections 302 and 404. It collects IT general-controls evidence from identity, ticketing, code, monitoring, and ERP tools. A Management Review Control builder records selection criteria, review evidence, investigation outcomes, and reviewer accountability. The software detects clusters of deficiencies and prioritizes remediation by restatement-risk impact. Its SOX workflow also automates quarterly access certifications, tracks privileged access, and detects segregation-of-duties conflicts. RiskWatch supports more than 40 regulatory frameworks, including SOX, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOC 2, and NIST standards. Listed evidence sources include Okta, Azure AD, Jira, ServiceNow, GitHub, GitLab, Splunk, Datadog, NetSuite, and SAP. REST and webhook APIs are standard; custom GRC, ITSM, and HRIS integrations are quoted separately. Quote options include cloud, on-premise, or hybrid deployment, with US East and EU Frankfurt data residency. The SOX page advertises a seven-day trial with full SOX features and no credit card required. Pricing is by custom quote, and there is no free plan.
