HighPoint Assessments™ Module:

The concept of a risk assessment is not new to business. Whether formal or informal, companies have always considered the obstacles to achieving company objectives. The new requirements for increased transparency as well as the competitive nature of the global economy, however, virtually obligate a company to be more structured in their approach to risk management. Web based HighPoint Assessments™, by HighPoint GRC, is a robust application that not only provides that structure but also greatly reduces the inefficiencies of risk assessments. It can be a key element in an already established ERM process or an excellent beginning point for a company embarking on risk management. Here’s the value:

• Conduct any type of objectives-based risk assessment.
• Customizable risk measures.
• Map risks to controls, policies, and business processes through subscription.
