GRC Consultancy for AA-X Mobile App Development

This case study outlines the collaboration between The AA and Advania's Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Consultancy Team during the development of the AA-X mobile application. The AA, a long-established motoring association in Britain, aimed to modernize its services by creating a mobile app that enhances vehicle maintenance through advanced technology. The project required integrating governance and risk management with technological innovation to ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations. Advania's consultant provided essential support in information security governance, acting as an extension of The AA's internal team. The consultant helped define security requirements, conducted risk assessments, and ensured that the application adhered to security policies. The successful launch of the AA-X app on major platforms was achieved without last-minute security issues, demonstrating the effectiveness of security-by-design principles applied throughout the development process.
