Risk Treatment

Identifying a security risk is only the beginning. Organisations must also decide what should be done about it.

Turning risk findings into action

Stanway Hope supports organisations in turning risk assessment findings into practical risk treatment activities. We help consider available options, understand their implications and develop proportionate responses appropriate to the level and context of risk.

Risk assessments and other security findings are only part of a solution. We support clients in developing and implementing risk treatment plans and solutions that make those findings actionable and help stakeholders reach informed decisions.

How we can help

From reviewing the finding to selecting proportionate measures and planning the work that follows.

Review risk findings

Examine identified risks and understand the conditions contributing to them.

Treatment options

Help consider appropriate approaches for addressing identified risks.

Control selection

Support the identification of proportionate security measures to address particular risks.

Prioritisation

Help determine which treatment activities require the greatest attention.

Residual risk

Support understanding of the risk remaining after proposed measures are considered.

Treatment planning

Translate agreed treatment decisions into clear activities that can be managed through delivery, connecting identified risks with appropriate security measures and recorded actions.

What this helps you achieve

The objective is to make risk findings actionable and help stakeholders reach informed decisions.

Action

Findings converted into work

Move from an assessment output to practical treatment activities that can be owned and delivered.

Focus

Clearer improvement priorities

See which treatment activities need the greatest attention, rather than treating every finding equally.

Judgement

Options and trade-offs in view

Understand realistic and proportionate treatment options, and what those choices imply.

Visibility

Residual risk made visible

Keep a clear view of remaining risk and outstanding actions after proposed measures are considered.

Our approach

Review the finding, consider realistic options, then plan the work and the residual risk that remains.

Step 1

Review

Understand the identified risk and its underlying causes.

Step 2

Consider

Explore realistic and proportionate treatment options.

Step 3

Plan

Define proportionate actions and priorities that can be managed through delivery.

Step 4
