SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — 6clicks, a leader in AI-powered governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) software, is excited to announce its global partnership with Accenture. This collaboration provides Accenture with a turn-key cyber GRC solution for federated businesses, and a platform to support the scaling of their global cybersecurity managed service offerings.
6clicks has partnered with Accenture to enhance cyber GRC programs for federated organizations facing evolving regulations and complex threats. By leveraging 6clicks’ unique Hub & Spoke architecture, Accenture advisors can streamline engagement delivery and managed service offerings to improve security, compliance, and risk management for businesses operating across various units, geographies, subsidiaries, or portfolio companies. With a proven track record in industries like aerospace, defense, manufacturing, financial services, and government, 6clicks provides centralized oversight while enabling teams to manage specific GRC needs autonomously. Powered by Hailey, the 6clicks AI engine, the platform supports automated regulatory compliance and enterprise risk, third-party, incident, and audit management.
Anthony Stevens, CEO and Founder of 6clicks, commented, “We’re thrilled to see Accenture delivering their best-in-class services through the 6clicks platform, helping distributed and complex organizations tackle the challenges of security compliance and risk management. This marks the beginning of a strong partnership that will significantly support these organizations making major advancements in their GRC programs.”
“This partnership is essential to address the challenges that distributed businesses face in managing cyber risk and compliance. Consider, for example, holding companies with a diverse range of subsidiaries,” said Martin Metz, Managing Director – Global Lead for Cyber Risk & Regulatory at Accenture. “6clicks is a modern, cost-effective platform that, with its unique Hub & Spoke architecture, is perfect for our clients with federated business models and distributed operations. It addresses a very common use case where alternative solutions are limited.”
