Risk Scoring

Each assessment calculates an overall risk level based on the likelihood and impact of identified risks. The system supports four risk levels.

LOW

MEDIUM

HIGH

CRITICAL

Risk scores are calculated from individual question responses and can be overridden by the assessor with justification. The overall risk level drives review requirements and mitigation priorities.

Risk Mitigations

Document mitigation measures for each identified risk. Track implementation status and assign ownership for follow-up actions.

Example Mitigations

Implement data encryption at rest and in transitImplemented
Add access controls and audit loggingImplemented
Conduct annual vendor security reviewPlanned
Deploy data loss prevention (DLP) toolsIn Progress
