STORM Platform · Risk Management

Make risk a connected operating process.

Move from mapped assets to impact, threat and vulnerability assessment, calculate risk in context, and carry decisions into a governed registry and treatment plan.

STORM supports established risk assessment methodologies, including STORM-RM and ISO/IEC 27005, while enabling the development and configuration of custom methodologies tailored to your organisation's specific needs.

From context to decision

Keep the reasoning behind every risk visible.

A risk score is only useful when teams can trace it back to the affected asset, the potential impact, the relevant threats and vulnerabilities, and the action chosen in response. STORM links those stages through a structured workflow while allowing the organization to configure how risk is calculated and classified.

01 · MODEL

Start with assets

Use Cartography and dependency context as the foundation for asset-based assessment.

02 · ASSESS

Build the evidence

Evaluate impact, threats and vulnerabilities with structured online questionnaires.

03 · EVALUATE

Calculate consistently

Apply defined scales, formulas, thresholds, matrices and classification criteria.

04 · TREAT

Turn findings into action

Select controls, assign ownership and maintain mitigation and treatment records.

Inside the platform

A complete path from assessment to treatment.

STORM combines methodology configuration, structured assessments, interactive results, a central risk register and treatment workflows.

01 · Methodology and evaluation

Use a built-in method—or configure your own.

Start with STORM-RM or ISO/IEC 27005 configurations, each defined with formulas, scales, thresholds, matrices and reporting settings. Organizations can also define their own scoring inputs, classification criteria and calculation logic.

  • Predefined STORM-RM and ISO/IEC 27005 configurations
  • Organization-specific scoring and calculation logic
  • Charts, searchable tables and risk-assessment reporting

02 · Structured assessment

Trace risk back to impact and exposure.

Assess confidentiality, integrity and availability consequences—including legal, financial and business considerations—then evaluate asset-specific threats and the vulnerabilities connected to them.

  • DPIA and BIA workflows within impact assessment
  • Threat groups assigned according to asset type
  • Threat-to-vulnerability relationships evaluated per asset

03 · Risk Registry

Keep assessed and custom risks in one governed record.

Create and manage custom risks arising from Third-Party Risk Management or Compliance Assessment alongside other findings. Capture likelihood, impact, risk level, controls, mitigation plans, treatment strategy, ownership, review dates and supporting files.

  • Ownership and review dates
  • Controls, mitigation plans and treatment strategy
  • Supporting attachments and searchable records

04 · Treatment

Connect each decision to controls and responsibility.

Select an appropriate treatment approach and choose from technical, physical and other controls associated with relevant asset types. STORM then produces the Risk Treatment Report and keeps the ongoing mitigation record.

  • Asset-relevant control selection
  • Risk treatment planning and reporting
  • Mitigation actions sync to Jira

Structured end to end

Keep each decision connected to the step that preceded it.

The workflow builds risk progressively instead of treating the final score as an isolated answer.

Scope and delivery

What Risk Management includes.

The right configuration depends on the organization’s risk appetite, governance model and reporting needs.

Included in STORM

  • STORM-RM and ISO/IEC 27005 methodology configurations
  • Custom scores, scales, criteria, thresholds and calculation logic
  • DPIA, BIA and asset-level CIA impact assessment
  • Threat and vulnerability questionnaires and relationships
  • Risk calculations, matrices, charts, filters and reports
  • Custom Risk Registry records from TPRM and Compliance Assessment
  • Control selection, treatment planning and mitigation-action sync to Jira

Good to know

  • Methodology configuration agreed at onboarding
  • Final control selection stays with your team
  • Risk-acceptance approvals agreed at onboarding
  • Other integrations on request
  • Certification is decided by an accredited body, not by the tool
Practical questions

Test the method against how your organisation decides.

Bring a real service, asset set, scale and treatment scenario to the product walkthrough.

Which risk methodologies are built into STORM?
STORM-RM and ISO/IEC 27005 are built in, including predefined formulas, evaluation scales, classification thresholds, risk matrices and reporting configurations. Beyond these ready-to-use methodologies, STORM enables the creation and configuration of fully tailored risk assessment methodologies to meet your organisation's unique requirements.
Can we configure our own methodology?
Yes. Organizations can define their own scoring, input scales, classification criteria and calculation logic. The exact configuration and governance should be validated for the intended use case.
What does the impact assessment cover?
STORM assesses confidentiality, integrity and availability impacts at asset level, taking account of legal, financial and business consequences. The same service includes Data Protection Impact Assessment and Business Impact Analysis workflows.
What can be stored in the Risk Registry?
Fields include likelihood, impact, risk levels, controls, mitigation plans, treatment strategies, ownership, review dates and supporting attachments. Custom risks can be derived from Third-Party Risk Management or Compliance Assessment.
Does STORM automatically choose the treatment?
Based on risk assessment results, STORM automatically recommends relevant security controls and countermeasures, considering the identified risks and associated asset types. Users can review, confirm, or adjust these recommendations and select the most appropriate risk treatment approach, ensuring that final treatment decisions remain under their control.
Which exports and reports are available?
Impact, threat and vulnerability results can be downloaded as PDF, DOCX, XLSX and PPT. Risk evaluation results can be exported in XLSX or CSV, with impact, threat, vulnerability and overall risk-assessment reports also available.
Does using STORM establish ISO/IEC 27001 conformity?
No software tool alone establishes conformity or certification. STORM provides built-in risk methodologies, workflows, evidence and reports that can support an organization’s management-system activities.

Bring one real risk. Trace it from asset to treatment.

Validate the methodology, scales, evidence, calculation, ownership and treatment record against the way your organization actually makes risk decisions.
