Interactive Risk Matrix

Visual Risk Distribution

The risk matrix provides instant visual understanding of your risk landscape:

• 3D Visualization: Enhanced depth perception for risk clustering
• 2D Grid View: Traditional matrix view for detailed analysis
• Color Coding: Intuitive risk level identification
• Interactive Points: Click for detailed risk information

Inherent vs Residual Views

Toggle between risk perspectives:

Inherent Risk View

• Raw risk without control considerations
• Shows true organizational exposure
• Identifies areas needing attention
• Baseline for control effectiveness

Residual Risk View

• Risk after control implementation
• Demonstrates control effectiveness
• Shows current actual exposure
• Progress toward risk appetite

Dynamic Filtering

Filter risk matrix data by:

• Risk Categories: Focus on specific risk types
• Owners: View risks by responsible parties
• Status: Active, closed, or under review
• Date Ranges: Historical vs current views

KPI Summary Cards

Real-time Risk Metrics

Four key performance indicators with trend analysis:

Critical Risks

• Count of risks scored at critical level
• 30-day trend with sparkline visualization
• Percentage change from previous period
• Alert threshold monitoring

High Risks

• High-level risk count and trends
• Risk velocity indicators
• Treatment progress tracking
• Escalation notifications

Medium Risks

• Medium-level risk monitoring
• Volume trend analysis
• Treatment effectiveness
• Workflow indicators

Low Risks

• Baseline risk tracking
• Closure rate monitoring
