How to find what you need

Each guide above maps to one screen or workflow in the risk module, written by the engineers who built it. Start with the topic that matches the task in front of you, whether that is building a risk register, scoring inherent and residual risk, or routing a treatment plan. Every guide opens with a short definition, then walks the steps in order.

New to RiskWatch? Read the Risk Assessment and Dashboard guides first, then branch into the specific settings and reporting topics as you configure your program. The risk module shares its data with the rest of the platform, so anything you score here feeds your wider governance, risk, and compliance picture instead of sitting in a silo.
