Changing a monitor on a mitigating control
1. I am using CUP 5.2 and I noticed that I am not able to change the monitor on a mitigating control. The messages reads that the administrator id is already assigned as a monitor to a business unit and cant be deleted. When I go to the business unit and try and update that monitor it is not allowing me to do that also. There are users that have been assigned to that mitigating control although their valid to date has expired. Does anyone know how I can update the monitor and keep the mitigatig control?
2. When I am assigning a user to a mitigating control is there away to do them all at once instead of one by one?
Hi Valarie,
You cannot edit the monitor of a mitigation control if that mitigation control has already been assigned to users. You will either have to delete all the users and then change the Mitigation control ID or you will have to assign a new monitor to all these mitigated users and then you will be able to delete the old monitor.
Hope this clarifies your doubt.
Thanks

Is there a method in labview to dynamically save and change the monitor resolution under program control? I have another application that runs on another monitor. I would like to change the monitor resoultion to 640x480 on program startup, and then restore the monitor resolution back to the user's settings on exit. Can this be done?

Have you already done this manually? I've seen Labview scale front panels very strangely when changing resolutions...

Significance of Monitor in Mitigation control
Can any body help me understand what does Monitor does in Mitigation control and what does the statement mean below:
"When creating a mitigation control, need to define the Action, Monitor ID, and
Frequency. If the monitor does not execute the action within the set frequency, then an alert
is generated"
Thanks,
AbhimanuHello Abhimanyu,
1. Can any body help me understand what does Monitor does in Mitigation control:
The role of Monitor is to see whether everything that was risky from the access being mitigated is fine or not. That is, he/she would see to it that the user who has been given extra excess or conflicting access has not misused it. Every Mitigatin control, for this purpose has a Monitor attached to it who does this job.
2. what does the statement mean below:
"When creating a mitigation control, need to define the Action, Monitor ID, and
Frequency. If the monitor does not execute the action within the set frequency, then an alert
is generated"
I guess this is also covered in the explanation for point 1 and the post above from Margaret. In case not, please let us know.

Changing Monitor on Mitigating Controls
HI all:
Just wondering, is there a way to change the Monitor on an existing mitigating control once it is assigned to either a role or user?? When we try to do it, the error message says "Role is already mitigated to Control xxxx: Monitor xxxx cannot delete".
The only workaround is to delete the exisintg entries and re-enter them with the new monitor...however this is not an efficient approach when we have many entries for one mitigating control.
The monitors are defined properly....we just can't change the mitigating control monitor once there are assignments to roles or users.
Any help would be appreciated.
MargaretI think one of the option may be to keep the monitor ID same but change the name of the monitor for that monitor ID in the administrator tab of mitigation.
Hope this helps

Risk Analysis and Remediation Mitigating Control Monitoring Alerts
Hello,
We have configured an alert for a Mitigating Control. The Monitor must execute the report every day (report frequency = 1) or an alert email is sent to the Risk Owner.
The Risk Owner recieves the Alert email and the Alert is logged on the Alerts tab only for the first two days after the report is not executed by the Monitor. Is there a setting somewhere that controls why the alert is not generated after two days?
thanks
TammiCorrection.
The email is only sent for 2 days. The alert is logged on the Alert Monitor tab every day. -
Mitigation Monitor does not appear in Mitigation Controls section
In GRC RAR in the u201CMitigationu201D tab, I added a new Mitigation Monitor in the u201CAdministratorsu201D section and a new Mitigating Control. When I try to add the new monitor in the u201CMonitorsu201D tab within the u201CMitigation Controlsu201D section, the new monitor does not appear as an option. Iu2019m pretty sure I have every bit of authorization possible, so I donu2019t think this is an auth issue. I do not have any users assigned to the new mitigation control, so that isnu2019t the problem either.Is there a trick to getting my new monitor to show up? Thank you!
You also are required to first add the users to a Business Unit: Mitigation - Business Units - Search
Edit the business unit associated with the Mitigating control that you created and add the users.
Go back to the mitigating control and you should not see the users that you associated with the Business Unit.

Mass maintenance of Mitigation controls in GRC 10.0
Dear All,
How to do mass maintenance of mitigation in ARA of GRC 10.0. We successfully migrated the mitigation controls from 5.3 to 10.0. I need to change the monitors for many user conflicts and also add new user conflict mitigation controls. Is it possible to do a mass changes in GRC 10.0 as there is no upload functionality for mitigation controls
Thanks and Best Regards,

We are not mitigating users now. Only roles are getting mitigated and hence we have not provided any values to the MIT USER table.
Thanks and Best Regard,
Srihari.KDear Varun,
Thanks for your reply. It helped me a lot. But however i am facing the following issue while uploading the mitigation controls
After exporting the mitigation file from RAR, we opened the text file in a spreadsheet format and added few lines to the file and saved in the same text format or in UTF-8 format also
After uploading the same into RAR again after changes we are facing similar errors mentioned in above query.
But when we add lines directly in the wordpad and upload the file then it is successful.
We have to add so many mitigation controls and roles to be assigned for which excel would be easy way to dump.
Is there anything wrong we are doing here in editing and converting the files.
Thanks and Best Regards,

Detect obsolete mitigating control assignments?
Hello,
What report/s would you use to detect obsolete mitigating control assignments?
The scenario is: A user has been assigned a mitigating control, let's say during the CUP workflow, to mitigate a certain risk that came with a certain role. Later, that role is removed from the user. Now the user is in the scope of a mitigating control. However, the user is not even subject to the risk in question anymore.
Which way (periodically?) could you detect these cases and clean up the mitigating control assignments?
Thanks and regards
PatrickHey,
My experience of cleaning up controls has not been very straight forward.
I have had to perform various risk analysis reports and look up a list of user accounts that have been marked as "Expired" etc.
It can be slightly more difficult if, like many organisations, you decide to assign a control with a infinite validity period (i.e. 12.12.9999).
The Business and Internal Control team need to be very proactive about regularly monitoring the controls and reviewing the assignments. This is one reason why I strongly recommend that controls are only assigned for a set period (i.e. 365 days/1 year), so a compulsory review takes place by the control owners/business on a regular basis. This makes the controls much more affective, robust and fit for purpose.
Happy to hear other's opinions and ideas. -

PeggyHello Peggy,
Did you recently upgraded your NW Java Support package? If yes, then kindly check the SAP Note "1417651 - Unable to retrieve connector & application configuration"
The problem is coming due to change in NW encryption algorithm and impacted GRC as well. This is fixed in SP10 of GRC.

Create A New Monitoring Profile In Grid Control
Hi All,
We need to set up a monitoring user in grid control to monitor only a few limited metrics i.e FRA area filled , Shared Pool usage, Archiver hung,cpu usage & memory usage..
This account would be provided to a monitoring team to view only these metrics and of course wont have rights to modify anything in the database so only read only access...
I managed to create a read only account from Setup----Administrators---Create...
So doing the above i have created the read only user from the appropriate options, now my only question is that i do not want to give read only access for any other metrics apart from the ones i mentioned above..
Is it possible to set only the above five metrics.
Thanks...Hi;
For your issue i suggest close your thread here as changing thread status to answered and move your issue to Forum Home » Enterprise Manager » Enterprise Manager Grid Control

Workaround for non-SAP mitigating control reminders
Dear all,
Our business users would like to document mitigating controls in RAR 5.3 regardless of whether they are connected with an SAP report. They would also like to receive email reminders for those controls.
Unfortunately, the frequency of the control can only be defined per connected SAP report and reminders will only be sent for controls if the SAP report has not been executed.
Have you been exposed with a similar requirement? It seems like a natural thing to ask from a business perspective. RAR 5.3, however, is not designed in that way.
Have you come up with any feasible workarounds for this?
My current approach would be to create a dummy Z-report per SAP system (such as Z_MANUAL_MITCTRL) that control monitors have to call once to confirm the execution of their control.
Cheers and best regards
PatrickHello,
Regarding your question, in fact this is dependant on how your UME (User Management Engine) is configured on your WAS (Web Application Server). If the UME is connected to your R/3 back-end then the user need to have a R/3 account to connect to CC, otherwise if your UME is "independant" then you just need to create an account in the UME.

How to open the monitor control panel when I'm in that space?
If i do F3 to come back on my desktop, the color of my display monitor return to LCD color, it's nice. However it's impossible to keep the LCD display when i come back on the application : "Adobe RGB 1998" comes automaticallySounds like the application is the problem. What application is it?
