Operational Risk Reduction and Control

Business Benefits

Lower the risk of your mission-critical enterprise applications.

Enterprise applications automate the business processes of virtually every organization. As a result, it is imperative that your organization effectively understands and governs its complex applications. A lack of control can expose your business to the risk of fraud, security breach, or system failure. Through Enterprise Application Modernization, these challenges can be managed.

Further, as the size and complexity of an application increases there is a greater chance that any modifications will lead to a cascade of unintended effects throughout the system. To maintain control requires that managers can view the structure and logic of their systems in detail. However, this is often not an option. Outsourced systems, ineffective tools, or simply a lack of time hinders the ability of managers to adequately address the risks that face their business.

Relativity Technologies can help. Our Modernization Workbench® platform accelerates Enterprise Application Modernization initiatives, including risk reduction through:

Application Understanding Reduces Security and Fraud Exposures

When enterprise applications stretch into millions of lines of code, you must rely on an automated approach to understand security and fraud risks within your portfolio. The Modernization Workbench helps through its rich application analysis and querying capabilities. For instance, users can map the flow of sensitive data through an application to ensure that it is protected along the path. Users can also deploy the Modernization Workbench's to uncover hidden paths to sensitive functions. Discovering and then blocking these paths eliminates unauthorized access to critical resources.

Improved Insight Reduces the Risk of Unexpected Failures

Managers can rely on the Modernization Workbench's analysis functions to locate and correct highly complex elements. With less complexity comes less risk of disruption when code modifications are executed. Further, the platform offers powerful impact analysis functions that highlight the effect of proposed changes. The result: users can eliminate many of the risks associated with the value-added modernization of enterprise applications.
