Managing risk starts with being clear on the assets to be protected and making the process easy and fast is the key to success. A simple instruction to fill in a template is easy and straightforward. It also makes clear that Risk management is everyone's responsibility and a blank form drives engagement. Risk management starts with recognising assets deployed and concomitant risks. The completion of a form is a universally accepted method to ensure records are kept. This book is a book of blank templates that one by one, when completed enable the completion of a central risk register. A risk register is required by security frameworks including ESORMA, ISO 27001, NIST. They help to manage risk and to determine the kind of insurance cover and other protections required for operations to stay active and to minimise the risk of injury and loss of business. Each completed form can be used as a component of a risk register. The forms in the book may be completed on-site and either collated or processed into a centralised risk register. The forms require consideration given to each individual asset applied in a uniform manner. The uniform assessment and collection of asset-related data can lead to quality comparisons being made across a wide range of assets and to accurate decisions being made. These will both build on the strength of an enterprise and ensure the enhancement of enterprise security capability and maturity. Assets may be intellectual property such as ideas. An asset may be people who have roles and responsibilities. An asset may be a process to follow and an asset may be fixed or not. All are involved with the safe and effective running of a business enterprise whether it is a for-profit or charitable enterprise. Every enterprise has a requirement to account financially and to be accountable for security. If a risk is identified, an owner must be assigned with responsibility as it is vital the risk is dealt with and managed locally. A risk register allows for the opportunity to record the asset, the associated risk, the type of risk, the potential cost and impact of the risk, to identify the owner of each risk and how the risk is to be dealt with. The risk register is a record to help ensure all risks are assigned and managed in order to reduce risks and ensure the smooth running of operations while minimising a range of dangers that may otherwise persist. A risk register should also help ensure that more money is made. Only the money needed to deal with the risk is spent and the appropriate cover is provided to the business in the most efficient manner.

Risk registers need to be compiled at least once a year, every year, and whenever there is a major change within the business in order to maintain a high level of safety and protection. In addition, consulting with colleagues to compile the risk register is an opportunity for review and discussion often leading to better ways of achieving goals and objectives. As client needs change, so do the processes we employ and the objective for most businesses is to continuously improve. You will probably agree: continual improvement is often driven by security initiatives.
