Security and compliance
How do I track technology risks and fixes in one place?
Use one risk and action register with a clear owner, severity, due date, status, and evidence of closure. Link related vulnerabilities, audit findings, vendor issues, or system changes to the same record when possible. Review overdue high-risk items regularly instead of keeping separate lists in email and spreadsheets.
What to check
- Does every risk have an owner?
- Are due dates and current status visible?
- What evidence is required before a risk can be closed?
