Mitigation control usage in PC 10

Hi Experts,
I am able to create Mitigation control under the PC of GRC 10. The same can be seen under the Mitigation control tab of AC. However, I am unable to see the mitigation controls that are designed under AC for assignment in PC. 
Is there any configuration that has to be done to connect both AC and PC?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Suma

Hello Adreas,
Thanks for the reply.
As you mentioned i have maintained the organization under Setup --> Organizations. However, I am still unable to see Mitigation controls under the subprocess.
I see that I can create a new mitigation control when I navigate through Master data>select specific organization code> select the subprocess-->add new control. This tab shows the creation of new Mitigation control. However, it does not diplay the mitigation controls that were created under AC.
Am I missing something? Please suggest.
Thanks,
Suma

  • Report Tab in Mitigation Control

    Dear Experts,
    Can anyone explain me the purpose/usage of Report Tab in Mitigration Control. I have browsed the forum but could not understand the actual need of this tab as I found different answers.
    Thanks,
    Raj

    HI Raj,
    Access Controls is used as a documental tool for Mitigating Controls, rather than a implementing tool, i.e. you apply the control against the role/user, but the actual application of the control is performed outside of Access Control. This may be realized by running a custom SAP report to monitor the usage of the risky functions within the ECC system etc.
    Access Control allows you to document such reports against the Mitigation Control, so this is the purpose of the tab. Given that GRC 10.0 integrates AC and PC, Mitigating Controls is master data that is shared amongst the different GRC modules, so I get the feeling Process Controls might utilize the "Report" data and check if the reports are being monitored by the control monitor/s at the scheduled frequency etc.

    We are not mitigating users now. Only roles are getting mitigated and hence we have not provided any values to the MIT USER table.

    Dear 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
    Patrick

    Hey,
    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.

    Hello 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.

  • 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
    Patrick

    Hello,
    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.

  • Bringing mitigating controls from PC to AC in GRC 10.0

    Hi ,
    I am going through remediation process in GRC 10.0, However there are no mitigation controls setup in AC.
    my client is asking me to copy all the mitigating controls from PC to AC.
    Is this possible ? if yes, What will be the process ?
    Thank you.

    Hi Sri,
    you can achieve by downloading and uploading the mitigations.

  • CUP-5.3-SP13-Mitigation Controls by rol/users

    Hi all!
    Since RAR consider mitigations contros both by rol and users, If I have the role ZROL1 mitigated for the ID risk P001* then, would be able CUP to consider this mitigation control even when CUP is managing users?
    I mean, if ZROL1 has a mitigation control, would appear at the request the ID risk whenever I add this role to a user?
    Many thanks in advance! any help would be welcomed.
    Margarita.

    Hi Margarita,
    If you want it will consider the role level mitigation controls. So in the request risk violation will not be shown.
    For this u need check the option, consider mitigation control in CUP. Configuration-> Risk anlsysis.
    Also in RAR following things needs to be done.
    RAR Configuration->Risk analysis-> Defaults values.
    Exclude mitigated Risk as yes.
    RAR Configuration-> Risk Analysis ->Additional options
    Include Role/Profile Mitigating Controls in User Analysis  as yes.
    If above values are defined as No. than Risk Voilation will be shown in the request.
    Kind Regards,

  • CUP - Mitigation Controls in a Detour Workflow

    Hello everybody,
    I have a problem with a detour workflow in CUP.
    I choose the detour condition: "SoD violation".
    So in theory, if there is no conflicts the workflow don't take the detour path.
    We supposed that the user request has an SoD conflict.
    In the stage(s) before the detour, if we assign a mitigation control that mitigate the risk, the detour is still taken.
    I think the workflow swich systematically to the detour if the request had a conflict, even if the risks were deleted by an Mitigation Controls assignment.
    Does anyone have a solution to avoid the detour path if we mitigate the risks?
    Thank you in advance!!

    Ben,
       This is how CUP works. There is no configuration which allows you to ignore SOD violaton even if there is mitigation. You will have to live with this for now.

  • GRC AC10 Mitigation Control Temporary Tables

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to find the table where GRC stores the organizational unit for a new mitigation control before the request is approved. As I could see, after approval (when the control is created) they are moved to HRP1000, 1001, etc.
    I've also tried with system trace (ST01 and ST05) but I could only find these tables: GRFNMWRTINST, GRFNMWRTINSTAPPL. Unfortunately I've checked them but they don't store OU data.
    Maybe it is stored in an XML file and that's why I cant reach the table.
    If you have any idea or any experience to share, I would really appreciate it!
    Thanks and regards,
    Fernando

    Hi Fernando
    Maybe it is stored in an XML file and that's why I cant reach the table.
    I was trying to figure out the same thing and suspected that was the case. Or if there might be a temporary text file
    I hope someone here can clear it up. But it's a bit annoying in the approach as you cannot tell what changes have been requested or compare changes to current. Hope SAP eventually cleans this up.
    Might need to trace it to identify the function module that is used by approver to view the request?

  • Query on Mitigation Control

    Hi all,
    We have configured Mitigation Controls and mitigated some of the users. We have the following queries in this regard:
    a) When we run the SoD anlaysis for that particular user we could able to see only half description of the Mitigation Control.
    Is there any limitation for the space or the parameters for the Mitigation Control Description.We are unable to see the entire description of the Mitigation Control (If the mitigation control is more than 7-8 lines) in the Detailed Report screen as well. Even after downloading into a spreadsheet also we are getting only the part of the mitigation control and not the entire description of the mitigation control
    b) A risk ID can be addressed by 2 or 3 mitigation controls. In this scenario,we have assigned 2-3 mitigation controls to one Mitigated user for mitigation. When we run SoD analysis we could able to see only the latest mitigation control assigned to the user in the report format (say out of 3 assigned only the 3rd one assigned is being shown).
    But when we did a search for Mitigation controls with  the Risk ID & User ID combination then it is throwing all the 3 mitigation controls. But the same is not shown in SoD violations reports
    Is there anything to do with the parameters set up or at the configuration side to resolve this.
    Please provide the procedure also in case of any changes to be made at configuration level.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Sri

    Hi Vit,
    Thanks for your reply. We crosschecked and you are correct that the space limitation is only for 132 characters in this table.
    Is there a way to get the mitigation control whole description or do we need to stick to this limitation itself.
    Also, when we did a search for Mitigation Control it gives only Mit.ID, Mit Control Desc, BU and Management approver. Whether there are any tables (from SAP Backend) or reports where we can get the Risk Ids including the above addressed by the mitigation controls.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Sri

  • Disable mitigation control workflow

    Hi community,
    one pretty simple question: I would like to be disable the mitigation control workflow, meaning, I would like to be able to directly save mitigation controls, without sending this through an approval process. I cannot find the associated activity in the spro. Can you please assist me on this?
    The way I saw this some time ago was that, if one disabled the mitigation control workflow, the Save button was visible in the mitigation control maintenance screen. When the workflow was enabled, the Submit button was visible (which, of course, makes sense). Now, I would like to be able to do this change.
    I did also look into transaction GRFNMW_CONFIGURE_WD - nothing suspicious here.
    Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • Implementing Mitigation Control IDs

    Hi,
    We are planning to implement mitigation control ids in GRC. Currently we are only having 1 mitigation control id and all the users are mitigated into this id.
    Now, the plan is to include the mitigation control advise/comments by the SOD approvers into the GRC and thus by introducing multiple mitigation control id we could achieve this.
    In our system users are mapped as per the Business Unit and we have around 25-30 business units. so each BU is have a seprate mitigation control approval (SOD Approver).
    We have around 150 Risk IDs.
    We are not able to understand how to design mitigation control IDs in such case? Is it a best practice to create mitigation control ID for each Risk ID in the system (May be we can group similar Risk IDs)? Your help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Umesh

    Hi Umesh,
    No, for 1 Mitigation COntrol there are serveral Monitors and users who are mitigated are added to only 1 mitigation control id.
    Which means you have multiple people monitoring every risk in your system. Does all of the monitors belong to the same functional group?? If yes, what happens if there is a risk in other functional groups? How they can identify and monitor it??
    If no, why a FI functional group monitor, needs to monitor the risk related to other groups?
    Can you pls explain more on primary and secondary functions?
    If the risk is related to one functional area only, the respective functional area will own it. If it is a cross functional risk, then it will be owned by both the functional area managers, which is often referred as primary and secondary functions.
      and what are the disadvantage of creating 1 mitigation control id for each risk (may be grouping some risks) considering the fact that we have 25 business units.
    It is just like giving 1 coke with 100 straws while you still have a stock in your refrigerator
