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 ISMS product page is three trust badges (ISO 27001 certified, Hosted in Germany, DSGVO Standards) and a phone number — nowhere does the evidence evidence an asset inventory, a risk register, treatment tracking, or a single incident workflow, let alone NIS2 24h/72h clocks. What exists is a step-by-step assistant, a task list with status, and a policy generator: an ISMS-shaped to-do app, not a risk backbone. 1 2 4
