Abstract: Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) is an emerging field of research within the Information System (IS) academic because of its importance in business requirements of organize et community. In particular, IT requirements, standards and best practices play crucial role in IT organizations. LISER Laboratory at Hassan II University has developed an architecture that describes the integration of the main processes for IT Governance, IT Risk management and IT Compliance (IT GRC) by adopting existing IT frameworks such as COBIT, ITIL, ISO 27001/27002, PMBOK the strong point of this solution is the use of a communication system which facilitates the integration of multi-agent systems, distributed services and applications to optimize the construction of IT GRC platform. The architecture of this system proposes a new and easier method to develop distributed platform where applications included can communicate in a distributed way with intelligent agents. Communication workflow is based on message passing mode in order to coordinate and control the interactions between components of IT GRC platform which help to perform tasks and achieve a higher level of interaction in an intelligent way.
