5 = regulated or highly confidential data.
5 = privileged admin access or write access.
5 = always-on integrations, APIs, or VPN links.
5 = repeated incidents or poor disclosure.
5 = strong controls. Low maturity increases risk.
5 = missing key attestations or evidence.
5 = stable. Low stability increases continuity risk.
Advanced: Custom Weights
If enabled, weights are normalized to 100 automatically.

Formula Used

Each factor is scored from 1 to 5. Each weight contributes a portion of 100. Protective factors are inverted to reflect reduced risk.

RiskScore = Σ( Weighti × (Scorei/5) )
ControlRisk = 6 − ControlMaturity
FinancialRisk = 6 − FinancialStability
If custom weights are enabled, your entries are normalized to sum to 100.

Priority Bands

  • 0–25: Low
  • 26–50: Medium
  • 51–75: High
  • 76–100: Critical
