GRC 10.0 : Maximum number of Rule Sets

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

What is the maximum number of rule sets we can define in GRC 10.0?

What could be the impact on performance if we defined a dozen of different rule sets?

Best Regards,

Nicolas

Hi,

In theory, you can have as many rulesets as you wish in the GRC 10 world. However, you rightly point out that there will be a substantial performance impact.

The number of rulesets is not really the key element here but the number of risks and rules defined within them will be.

If you know that you wish to manage a significant number of separate rulesets, be sure to spec them out accordingly and make use of the connector groups to rationalise the content as far as possible (e.g. group similar elements like Basis or systems together). You will also need to size the GRC system appropriately with a basis SME so that you can review the system performance appropriately.
