Checklist for Creating an Assessment

Assemble the following RiskVision objects before creating an assessment:

  1. A program with ownership that satisfies all your assessment needs. If you are using an existing program, it is recommended that you walk-through all the options that are available in the program wizard. If any of the options do not suit your assessment methodology, you must create a new program.

  2. An entity to be assessed in RiskVision with an ownership to select in an assessment.

  3. If an entity is related to another entity, define a relationship between entities and specify the settings that propagate control assignments, control results, risk scores, and tag or criticality values.

  4. Adjust the threshold value of a configuration range according to your assessment criteria.

  5. You must have Assessments View, and Assessments Create or Assessments Manage permissions. If you have Assessments View and Assessments Create permissions, you will be able to create assessments. If you have Assessments View and Assessments Manage permissions, you will be able to create assessments and manage actions, such as deleting assessments, regardless of ownership.
