Abstract

In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in developing methods and tools for automating the design of governance, risk and compliance (GRC) models. This work suggests a method for machine-assisted identification and design of new risks, based on business logic that is extracted from real-life process repositories using a linguistic analysis of the operational similarity between process conducts. The suggested method can assist process analysts, audit executives and risk managers in identifying new organizational risks while making use of knowledge that is encoded in existing process repositories. The suggested framework was tested on the ProcessGene process repository, showing our approach to be effective in enabling the identification and design of new risks within real-life business process models.
