Asset & risk management depth
How this is scored
The ISMS core: asset inventory, risk methodology (identification, assessment, treatment), inheritance of protection needs (Schutzbedarf) across assets, and security incident handling with its reporting deadlines.
0 — Not an ISMS tool; the product has no asset or risk management.
3 — A risk register with likelihood and impact, and an asset list that can be imported.
5 — Asset inventory and risk management with a configurable risk matrix, risk treatment with owners and measures, and a register for security incidents.
8 — A documented risk methodology (ISO 27005, BSI 200-3 or equivalent), protection needs inherited across asset relations, incident workflows with the NIS2 reporting deadlines (24h/72h), and risk acceptance with named owners.
10 — Risk management a certifier works inside: the complete asset-risk-treatment chain with inheritance, business continuity planning (BIA, ISO 22301 or BSI 200-4), incident reporting with export for the authority, and risk reporting for the executive level.
The Evidence Integrator
Risks, assets, vendors, policies, controls and incidents sit in one repository, with pre-built risk libraries, numeric-scale assessments, built-in risk matrices and heatmaps, taxonomy links from each risk to the controls, resources, processes and people it impacts, and Risk Ripple Intelligence surfacing cascading effects across those relations. Incident remediation and a Business Continuity solution module are named. The captured pages stop short of a documented risk methodology such as ISO 27005 or BSI 200-3, protection-needs inheritance in the German sense, or the NIS2 24h/72h reporting deadlines, so I score it above a basic register but well below the certifier grade. 1 2 5
