Saloni Bhosale
@salonibhosale
GRC and IT risk professional building controls testing and vendor risk programs to close findings fast.
What I'm looking for
I’m a GRC and IT risk professional with hands-on experience performing IT General Controls (ITGC) testing, risk register management, IT risk and control gap analyses, third-party and vendor risk assessments, and audit evidence collection with remediation tracking. I built a live GRC risk intelligence platform tracking 50+ controls across five frameworks, improving audit outcomes with faster review cycles and on-time closure of findings.
As an IT Security Assessment Risk and Control Extern (Hydroficient, Remote), I conduct ITGC testing across 10+ networked system components and produce a risk-prioritized remediation roadmap adopted by leadership. I evaluate vendor and third-party security controls, document gaps, build audit evidence repositories from a zero baseline, and coordinate multiple workstreams under strict deadlines.
Earlier, I designed and maintained a risk register across 15+ operational processes using ERM methodology, executed vendor risk assessments through SOC report analysis, and drove audit findings to 100% on-time closure through remediation tracking. I also supported regulated client portfolios by applying AML/KYC and sanctions requirements with 100% documentation accuracy, and I’m completing my M.S. in Cyber Forensics and Security at Illinois Institute of Technology.
