NAVEX

GRC software platform for risk management

Overview

NAVEX Global, which acquired LockPath, offers the Keylight platform as a SaaS solution for governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) and integrated risk management (IRM). Keylight is a modular, cloud-based suite (with on-premises or hybrid options) built on a patented Dynamic Content Framework that lets users configure without coding and includes modules like Audit Manager, Business Continuity Manager, Compliance Manager, Incident Manager, Risk Manager, and Vendor Manager. It gathers data from many internal and external sources to provide a centralized view of risk and compliance, supporting end-to-end coverage from policy creation to audit readiness. The goal is to provide a single, holistic GRC/IRM platform that consolidates risk, compliance, and third-party oversight to help organizations meet regulations and make better risk-based decisions.

Simplify's take

What believers are saying
