RiskKey: Newly Designed Assessments Area

Brad February 11th, 2010 Comments

We just launched a new revamped assessment area for RiskKey that we think you’re really going to enjoy using. We care very much about an interface that is as simple to use as possible so you can focus on the work at hand.

Why redesign it?

RiskKey has continued to improve over the years to not only be a risk assessment tool that it started as but also one that now incorporates features like project management, files, and an audit system. With that, the risk assessment section needed to be retooled to better align with those sections and to allow for a better user experience for you. We really liked how the audit section has turned out so we decided to follow suit over in the assessments area as well. And voila…

You can see that we moved to the two column layout to give a nice divider between the left side that focuses on titles and descriptors and the right column being about doing the work like threat analysis and safeguarding (but done in a super simple way).

Link-tastic!

We also wanted to make the information more available to you in the other areas that connect back to this assessments screen. So you are now able to click a link and get directly to the recommendations and the associated audit objectives in just one click. We love that.

We’ve got more to coming soon but in the mean time…
