What is a Risk Register in Cyber Security?

A risk register in cybersecurity is a structured and organized document used to record, track, and manage the various risks and vulnerabilities an organization faces in its IT and cyber environment. It is a central repository for information about potential threats, vulnerabilities, and associated risks, allowing organizations to prioritize and address them effectively.

With CyberStrong, users can establish risk registers to associate controls to risks based on their chosen methodology, including NIST 800-30, FAIR, or a custom cyber risk quantification model.
