“We’re extremely proud to be named as a Leader in Forrester’s rigorous evaluation system,” said Dan Zitting, chief product & strategy officer, Galvanize. “We believe this accomplishment is a testament to the hard work of marrying our GRC platforms to create an end-to-end system that sets the industry standard for stronger IT security, risk management, compliance, and assurance.”
The report notes the company’s successful integration of ACL and Rsam to create a combined industry catalyst.

“We’re witnessing a shift among the world’s most influential businesses, as they demand value from organizations that stretch beyond financial profit,” said Laurie Schultz, president & CEO, Galvanize. “Being recognized as a Leader by Forrester is extremely impactful, as it corroborates our unique vision to create a comprehensive GRC offering worthy of tomorrow’s workforce, as well as bringing us closer to our goal of consolidating the GRC industry, and being the operating system for conscious organizations.”
