Risk Register
A document or database that systematically records all risks identified within an organization, along with their potential impacts and proposed mitigation strategies.
A risk register is a critical tool in risk management, providing a comprehensive overview of the organization's risk landscape. It includes details about each risk, such as its description, likelihood, impact, and status of mitigation actions.
The risk register is updated regularly to reflect new risks and changes in existing risks. It serves as a basis for risk assessments, decision-making, and communication with stakeholders about the organization's risk profile.
Maintaining an accurate and up-to-date risk register is essential for effective risk management and is often a requirement in compliance frameworks such as ISO 27001 and GDPR.
