Validate "end user computings": EUC Portal

Fri, 28 May 2021 16:02:43 GMT

The EUC Portal is a smart and easy software solution from KPMG, which helps financial services and other companies to identify, validate and manage end user computings (EUCs). How does it work? In a first step you can scan large amounts of files in your organization to identify potentially critical files based on their technical parameters and included keywords. After analyzing the results in the dashboard you can initiate validation workflows for these files to get the confirmation from a business and risk perspective via a form with a company-specific decision tree. If an EUC is identified you can initiate an inventory workflow with a company-specific form to gather all relevant information and documents. As part of a continuous EUC lifecycle management process you can view, manage and export versioned EUC inventory entries in the management section of the tool.
