Rsam Announces Record Growth in 2013

SECAUCUS, NJ--(Marketwired - October 24, 2013) - Rsam, the industry-leading provider of Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) and Security Risk Intelligence (SRI) solutions, today announced a healthy double digit year-over-year revenue growth in 2013 and is well-positioned for continued growth in 2014.

Leveraging the successful launch of Rsam v8 earlier this year, Rsam is benefiting from growth in two major areas:

• Consolidation of GRC tools - Since the rise of Sarbanes-Oxley and other regulations over a decade ago, many organizations amassed 6-12 purpose-built GRC applications to demonstrate compliance, pass audits and meet other departmental compliance objectives. These organizations are now taking a platform-based approach to improve efficiency by leveraging the Rsam Platform to consolidate existing and legacy tools while gaining increased functionality.
• Expansion of Enterprise GRC - Rsam is expanding its enterprise footprint beyond IT and security risk groups to include buying center in internal audit, corporate compliance, enterprise risk (ERM) and vendor management that are reaping the benefits of Rsam solutions.

"With the acknowledged success of Version 8 and the growing demand for integrated solutions, 2013 has become an impressive year for Rsam," said Vivek, Shivananda, CEO of Rsam. "Increased demand for Internal Audit, Vendor Management and Enterprise Risk consolidation has allowed us to continue to expand our footprint in EGRC, which now accounts for 40 percent of our revenue."

In the past nine months, Rsam has released the highly anticipated Version 8.0, launched the innovative Security Risk Intelligence (SRI) solution and greatly expanded its relevance to internal audit, corporate compliance and enterprise risk buying centers. As many organizations continue consolidation of various purpose-built GRC tools, Rsam's flexibility and the superior interface of the Rsam Platform reinforce the market's acceptance of Rsam as the de-facto choice for aggregating existing solutions, while providing valuable supplemental and actionable insight.

"We've had a tremendous third quarter, closing multiple deals in excess of $1M and adding ten new Fortune 500 organizations to our customer base," said Neil Hooper, Senior Vice President of Sales for Rsam. "This growth comes on the heels of a 'Strong Positive' rating, the highest possible, in Gartner's MarketScope Report and a 5-Star rating from SC Magazine. We anticipate that in the coming year we will build on these successes while continuing to increase our relevance and value to tomorrow's successful enterprises."
