The Hidden Cost of GRC Sprawl — and How LockThreat Consolidates It

Written by

Most organizations don’t realize how fragmented their GRC approach has become — until a breach, audit failure, or budget crisis forces a rethink.

Here’s what we see:

  • One tool for policies
  • Another for audits
  • Spreadsheets for risk
  • Email workflows for approvals
  • A half-integrated control tracker

That’s GRC sprawl. And it’s costing you:

  • Time lost in duplication and manual effort
  • Gaps in compliance and risk visibility
  • Higher risk of errors, delays, and audit pain
  • Lower confidence from leadership

LockThreat consolidates this into one platform — designed to scale with you, no matter how complex the org.

It’s not just about tool consolidation. It’s about operational confidence.
