The free Risk Assessment Template
A free, ready-to-use risk assessment template and form: identify each hazard or risk, score likelihood and impact, log the controls already in place, and assign the actions and owners to close the gap.
The short version
What is the Risk Assessment Template?
The Risk Assessment Template is a free, structured form for identifying and scoring risk. For each hazard or risk it records a description and category, likelihood and impact, the inherent rating, the controls already in place, the residual rating, the additional actions needed, and the owner and due date. It turns a one-off assessment into a consistent record you can defend to an auditor, and it carries over cleanly when you move it into a platform.
