Infogix Controls

Infogix Controls are Independent Automated Information Controls that are deployed to continuously verify, balance, reconcile, and monitor information flowing through a business process, application, or exchange. They can compare information against other diverse information sources or against prior recorded information. Control results can be used to generate alerts, halt erroneous transaction flows or error propagation, and generate reports.

What Does an Infogix Control Do?

An Infogix Control is always working to keep your information and the processes and systems that handle it in check. You might have several or even dozens or more Infogix Controls deployed to assure the integrity of a specific business process. Each Infogix Control performs these functions:

Capture	Intercept or extract data from relevant sources: files, databases, reports, spreadsheets, messages, transactions, etc.
Compare	Apply your user-defined business rules to detect information or process errors.
Control	Interrupt or alter processes before incorrect information propagates further.
Communicate	Provide alerts, notifications, reports and audit trails.

Benefits of Infogix Controls

Assurance: Avoid financial loss and protect your company's reputation.
	Prevent propagation of information errors Ensure regulatory compliance and satisfy internal and external audits Avoid or reduce financial loss due to information errors

Insight: Capture and analyze information across your enterprise.
	View micro and macro trends and performances Monitor and audit controls and controls deployment

Improvement: Reduce time and costs of controls related activities
	Automated and streamlined processes Reduce time and cost of controls related activities Standardized and consistent controls

Principles of Infogix Controls

As leaders in Information Integrity solutions, Infogix has pioneered development of technologies offering the most important attributes of highly robust independent automated information controls.

Independent – Infogix Controls operate independent of the process being controlled. Controls that are built-in to applications are not independent and are subject to many of the same risks that the application itself has.

Concurrent – Infogix Controls are able to execute simultaneously with controlled processes. Additionally, numerous Infogix Controls are able to execute in parallel with each other. Our controls also operate continuously or driven by events including fiscal cycles.

Verifiable – Infogix Controls produce audit trails so that their performance can be tested.

Standard – A standardized approach to deployment of controls significantly lowers their cost of operation and maintenance. Ad-hoc control deployments can prove costly. Many of our customers have made Infogix Controls the standard across their enterprises.

Rules-based – Infogix Controls offer rules-based standardization, automation, and verifiability. This enables a lower cost implementation and maintenance without expensive software developers. Further, Infogix Controls logic can be driven by parameters and data that are easy to maintain and verify without software developers.

Non-intrusive – Infogix Controls do not require data format changes within the applications or processes being controlled. The introduction of such changes, required by other control technology, brings additional information risks and implementation costs.

End-to-End – Infogix Controls can track transactions as they flow through your business, between applications, computing systems, databases, and departments providing reconciliation coverage that spans your enterprise.
