Accurate Inventory is a fundamental, Step #1
Having a valid inventory of your critical (high-risk) end-user controlled (EUC) applications (e.g. Excel spreadsheets) is just plain smart.
When a critical business process is dependent on an EUC, there needs to be visibility & controls. Manual lists or registers can be used to track such inventories, but that is labor-intensive and nearly impossible to keep up-to-date.
Given the highly dispersed nature of these applications & files across many users, owners, and geographies, the use of web-based technology for EUC and Spreadsheet risk management is a must.
Your sensitive data remains secure
CIMCON's EUC Inventory Cloud is not a repository. Your confidential spreadsheet and other assets remain within the security of your firewall. The inventory is not the physical storage of the applications & files themselves; it is the system of record for the risk-related metadata associated with those files (e.g. Owner, Risk rating, Date of last validation, etc.). The inventory-as-a-service not only manages that information; it automates the email notifications for periodic updates and provides enterprise visibility/reporting.
