# Continuous Risk Monitoring

The **Continuous Risk Monitoring** tab in Sprinto allows you to proactively monitor risks, evaluate the effectiveness of treatments, and focus on those that require immediate action.

To access Continuous Risk Monitoring:

1. Log in to the Sprinto dashboard.
2. Navigate to **Dashboard** → **Continuous Risk Monitoring**.

From this page, you can:

* View the total number of approved risks in your risk register.
* Track **average inherent risk**, **average residual risk**, and **average effective residual risk**.
* Measure **average treatment effectiveness** for your organisation’s risk portfolio.
* Review a **summary of risks by treatment effectiveness**, grouped by category (for example, _Cybersecurity_).

***

#### Dashboard Actions

**1. View overall risk posture**

* The summary cards display key metrics:
  * **Average inherent risk** – risk level without any mitigation or controls.
  * **Average residual risk** – remaining risk after mitigation.
  * **Average effective residual risk** – residual risk adjusted for treatment performance.
  * **Average treatment effectiveness** – overall percentage indicating how well risk treatments are performing.

**2. Drill down into risk details**

* Click a risk category to view treatment effectiveness for individual risks.
* Each risk entry displays:
  * **Risk name and ID** (for example, _CRK 77.1: Data Breach_).
  * Description of the risk.
  * Average treatment effectiveness percentage.
  * Controls applied to mitigate the risk.
  * Number of checks monitoring each control, with readiness percentages.
  * Associated risk treatment tasks and their completion status.

**3. Review control and task readiness**

* Expand a control to view all mapped checks and their individual readiness status.
* Track pending tasks related to risk treatment directly from the drawer view.

**4. Identify improvement areas**

* Use readiness percentages to quickly identify underperforming controls or incomplete tasks.
* Focus efforts on failing or low-readiness areas to improve overall treatment effectiveness.

***

#### Best Practices

* Regularly review risks with low treatment effectiveness to ensure timely remediation.
* Use the readiness breakdown to prioritise resources where the most impact can be made.
* Keep treatment tasks up to date to prevent risk posture degradation over time.
