ISACA has released a Risk Starter Kit to aid enterprises in creating their own tailored risk management program. The kit contains a wealth of tools and templates to facilitate risk assessment, risk appetite, risk maturity assessment, risk policy creation and other related tasks. As enterprises have learned even more acutely over the past few years, managing risk is crucial to minimizing disruption and ensuring business continuity in the face of challenges.
The Risk Starter Kit includes guidance and templates that provide enterprises with a strong foundation for creating their own customized risk management tasks suited to their needs. These resources include:
- Risk appetite statement
- Risk assessment template
- Risk reporting
- Risk governance tools, including an IT risk management policy and a risk committee charter
- Risk maturity assessment
- IT risk job descriptions
- Risk scenario template
- Risk and controls library
- Risk register
Rather than having to create each tool to perform standard risk management tasks on their own, enterprises can save time by downloading the components and editing and customizing them based on their own needs and key risk management functions.
The Risk Starter Kit is free for ISACA members and US$49 for nonmembers, and can be downloaded at https://store.isaca.org/s/store#/store/browse/detail/a2S4w000005EgZbEAK.
