    User Dashboard use
    Enterprise risk manager The enterprise risk manager can view the different enterprise risks and understand how many risks are critical, high, moderate, low, and very low. This dashboard provides an understanding of the overall enterprise risk posture.
    Project manager The project manager can select the project for which they want to view the risks. They can view the trend of the risks on a quarter-by-quarter basis, the number of risks assessed, the number of risks that affect the enterprise, and so on. The heatmap aggregates all the project risks that are assessed. It helps to keep a track of the bad risks and helps to manage them. This reduces the overall risk exposure for an organization.
