Benefits


One of the primary purposes for a risk heatmap is to allow users to visualize the ranking of risk objects in relation to each other.

Risk heatmaps are especially valuable for executive level customers, as they can be used by decision makers to identify areas of the business where additional resources may be necessary (e.g. a software product with a high number of vulnerabilities or a business process that has unmitigated risks).


IMPORTANT

Risk items in ZenGRC have a different set of permissions than other objects. To review those permissions and how they impact user access, please see Role-Based Permissions for Risk.

Overview


The ZenGRC Risk Heatmap provides the following:

  • At-a-glance perspective into the risks impacting the organization.
  • Immediate access to individual risks.
  • Ability to customize the heatmap using your organization's metrics.
  • Options to instantly set up risk settings with predefined calculations and risk registers. 

NOTE

If your organization has not established risk settings, the Risk Heatmap may not populate correctly. To set up calculations and scoring, please see Setting up the Risk Heatmap.
