Asset & risk management depth
How this is scored
The ISMS core: asset inventory, risk methodology (identification, assessment, treatment), protection-needs inheritance, incident handling with statutory clocks.
0 — No ISMS substance; "information security" is a chapter in the marketing site.
3 — A flat risk list and an asset spreadsheet import; no treatment tracking, no inheritance, incidents live in the ticket system.
5 — Asset and risk management with configurable matrices and treatment tracking; basic incident handling; inheritance and aggregation need manual work.
8 — A real risk backbone: documented methodology (ISO 27005 or equivalent), inherited protection needs across asset relations, incident workflows with statutory reporting clocks (NIS2 24h/72h), risk acceptance with ownership.
10 — Risk management a certifier works inside: complete asset-risk-treatment chain with inheritance, continuity planning, incident reporting with authority export, and risk reporting the executive level actually reads.
The Skeptic
The risk methodology is genuinely documented — ISO 27005 lifecycle from identification to monitoring, pre-built scenarios with automatic owners and quarterly reviews, and a change trail — and asset discovery with bulk classification and scope tracking is real, with custom hardware entering by bulk Excel. But I found no public information on incident handling of any kind, statutory reporting clocks, protection-need inheritance across asset relations, or configurable risk matrices. That puts asset and risk management depth solidly above a flat register and below a full risk backbone. 2 3
