Case Study

F500 MSSP delivers risk, compliance, and vendor services with a 90% reduction in operational costs

Founded in the past few 5 years, one of TruOps’ MSSP partners quickly emerged as a trusted advisor serving Fortune 500 enterprises. Tasked with addressing the ever-expanding Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) requirements of its clients, this MSSP recognized the need for a scalable and flexible solution that could streamline its service delivery and bolster its operational efficiency. With its robust portfolio of services, the MSSP’s ambition was to empower organizations across industries to achieve their compliance and security goals efficiently, without compromising quality.

To deliver on this promise, TruOps’ MSSP partner required a platform that could manage multi-tenant environments, automate complex workflows, and ensure adaptability to rapidly evolving regulatory landscapes. Enter TruOps, a groundbreaking platform designed to enable MSSPs to deliver GRC-as-a-Service (GRC-aaS) at scale.
