Risk management is more than the introduction of a tool! Our approach goes further
People
80% of the risks are caused by human actions. Increasing risk awareness = risk management.
Process
This is about how we do things, how we improve the different risk and control processes and how we achieve synergy.
Technology
Technology should support the process and help the organization to be demonstrably in control in accordance with the 3 Lines Model.
What is Risk Management?
Risk management is typically a term that everyone has an idea of. Managing risks will probably have something to do with:
a) mapping risks.
b) shaping risks to your liking.
c) ultimately reducing risks.
Or is it different? Yes, because how it can ultimately contribute to a better strategy for your organization is still often unknown. That’s why this page.
Three Lines Model
1st line
2nd line
3rd line
The Three Lines of Defense model from The Global Institute of Internal Auditors was updated in July 2020.
The functions are not only intended to protect the value of the organization, but also to increase it. As a result, we no longer talk about ‘lines of defense’ or ‘lines of defence’.
The goals of the organization are central to all functions. The functions are not silos, but coordinate and work together; each from his own role. The design of the model must be geared to the risks and specific situation of the organization.
The 3LM establishes a stronger link with the objectives of the organization.

1st line
This group is ultimately responsible for the choices made and the risks taken in daily practice .
You want to optimally support the people who are responsible for the most important activities and processes in an organization. GRC information is relevant, but often only if you have to. How do you make it easier for them? How is risk management going to live for them? Do they know within which frameworks they have to operate? And how do you effectively conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment without immediately bombarding all teams with a questionnaire of more than 100 questions?
Key words are: Accountability and reporting.

The joint discussion of risks and underlying perception differences ensures support towards a final top 10. With Naris GRC allows employees to participate in a risk dialogue. For example, people can chat about the risks, add causes and ultimately vote on probability x impact.
Building knowledge base of risk and controls
With one control you can several risks are covered. It is therefore important to carefully describe risks and controls. This avoids a chaos of risk descriptions that are basically the same. Thanks to Naris Next a risk is only entered once and from department-specific information provided.
