Executive summary

A playbook for running a risk-and-controls assessment, mapping risks to controls, testing coverage, and producing the remediation priorities. This is the Risk Controls Assessment Playbook from the Stratenity Library, a governed consulting deliverable that is already built for you. It gives your team the full working method for risk controls assessment, and it walks through everything from inputs and evidence to control testing and effectiveness. Every asset ships with a worked client example, a clear RACI, defined KPIs, and governance you can defend, so your team adapts it to a live client engagement instead of starting from a blank page.
