The 2026 GRC Benchmark Report.
An annual report on the state of GRC programs — framework adoption, audit prep, vendor risk, AI governance, and program economics. Free, gated by work email.
The cross-cut view the industry won't publish in one place.
Six dimensions of GRC program reality — sourced from A-LIGN, Hyperproof, ISACA, Gartner, IBM, and Secureframe.
Framework distribution
Which frameworks are programs running in 2026 — and which are growing fastest year-over-year.
Audit prep timelines
How long teams spend on audit prep, by framework count and program maturity.
Vendor risk practices
TPRM tooling adoption, assessment cadence, and the gap between policy and practice.
AI in GRC
How programs are governing AI use — both internally and from vendors.
Tooling consolidation
Average GRC tool count per program, and the consolidation patterns that work.
Program economics
Headcount benchmarks, tooling spend, and external audit cost benchmarks.
The 2026 report synthesizes findings from leading public industry benchmarks, regulatory and standards research, and Talarity's analysis — with every quantitative claim cited to its source.
