Role required: sn_grc.business_user
About this task
To perform an object risk assessment, a prior knowledge of
risk is not necessary. When you perform any object assessment in the Risk Workspace, you do not see the description of the risk and any
reference information because the entire context of risk is not required. You can
configure the risk assessment button in the object record and start the assessment. For
more information, see Any object assessment using Advanced Risk Assessment.
