About ISO 31000 and ISO 27005

ISO 31000 is the international standard for enterprise risk management — applicable to risks of any kind. ISO 27005 is the information-security-specific risk management standard, aligned with ISO 27001. Both follow the same fundamental flow: identify → analyse → evaluate → treat → monitor.

Risk score = Likelihood × Impact (each on a 1–5 scale, giving a 1–25 score). Treatment options: Avoid (eliminate the activity), Transfer (insure, outsource), Mitigate (reduce L or I), Accept (within tolerance).

FAQ

Where is my data stored?

Entirely in your browser’s localStorage. Nothing is sent to any server. Clear browser data or use private mode to remove.

Is this compatible with ISO 27001?

Yes — the structure aligns with ISO 27005 (the InfoSec risk methodology referenced by ISO 27001). You can use this register as your formal ISO 27001 risk register evidence.

Can I import a register from elsewhere?

Yes — export from your previous tool as JSON in the format produced by this tool (or with the fields: id, title, description, category, likelihood, impact, treatment, treatmentNotes, residualL, residualI, owner). Use Import JSON.

What scale should I use?

This tool uses a 5×5 matrix which is the most common in ISO practice. For very mature organisations, 7×7 or 10×10 may be appropriate.
