riskiregistrisse

Riskiregistrisse is a term used in risk management to refer to the act of recording and maintaining risks in a risk register. A risk register is a structured repository that captures identified risks, their causes and potential impacts, and the planned response. The entry typically includes: risk description, category, likelihood, impact, risk score, existing controls, risk owner, action plan, target completion date, residual risk, and current status.

Risks are identified through workshops, interviews, checklists, incident reports, and monitoring of internal and external factors. The risk register supports prioritization by combining likelihood and impact to produce a risk ranking. The risk owner is responsible for monitoring and updating status and actions. Regular reviews ensure the register reflects new information and mitigations.

Effective risk registration aligns with governance frameworks such as ISO 31000 and COSO. It is used at organizational, program, project, or operational levels, with digital tools enabling real-time updates and reporting to executives or boards.

Common challenges include data quality, inconsistent risk definitions, duplication, and keeping the register up to date across departments. Benefits include improved transparency, accountability, early warning of emerging risks, and a basis for risk response planning and resource allocation.

Note: The term riskiregistrisse is used in some languages to denote either the process of entering risks into a risk register or the record itself.
