History
Virsa Systems was founded by Jasvir Gill, a software engineer based in Silicon Valley. The Virsa tool was substantially based on a tool developed by PricewaterhouseCoopers, known as SAFE, which was purchased by Virsa in December 2004. The SAFE tool was a preventative, automated tool developed to control the granting and management of access within SAP.
On 3 April 2006, SAP AG announced its decision to acquire Virsa Systems. According to the press release, the acquisition was a part of its creation of a new business unit to provide customers with end-to-end solutions for GRC.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“We know only a single science, the science of history. One can look at history from two sides and divide it into the history of nature and the history of men. However, the two sides are not to be divided off; as long as men exist the history of nature and the history of men are mutually conditioned.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“The history of all previous societies has been the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“The history of this country was made largely by people who wanted to be left alone. Those who could not thrive when left to themselves never felt at ease in America.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
