How to Generate Risk Reports

1.    Access the Risk module.

2.    Select Generate Reports from the Reports option on the menu.

 

The system displays the list of enabled risk report templates, grouped by language. Copies of default risk templates provided by Modulo will only be available here to their authors and audience members. The Template Type column indicates the type of report (Risk Analysis Report, Detailed Risk Report, Detailed Risk Report by Threat, or the Executive Analysis Report), while the Origin column indicates if the template has been customized or if it was provided by Modulo.

 

3.    Click Generate Report () net to the report you want to generate (see figure below).

 

 

The system displays a screen where you can select one or more projects for which you want to generate the previously selected template and set filters (see figure below).

 

 

4.    In the Project field, mark the checkboxes next to the projects for which you want to generate the report. Click outside the field to confirm your selection.

 

Note: If a single asset component is analyzed in more than one project, the results will be obtained based on the latest closed questionnaire related to it.

 

5.    Select a type of filter from the list on the left and click Add to Filter to select the objects that will be used to filter the report (see figure below).

 

 

Note: These filters will only apply to default data sources. In other words, they will not work in SQL queries included as data sources in the report.

 

6.    Select the objects to be added to the filter in the window that appears and click Add Selected (see figure below). If you want to quit the operation, click Cancel.

 

 

The system displays the objects selected in the list of applied filters. The options with filters set can be identified by the funnel icon () next to them.

 

7.    To remove objects from the filter, mark the checkboxes next to those you want to remove and click Remove from Filter.

8.    To remove all filter criteria, click Clear Filters (see figure below).

 

 

9.    If there is not at least one closed questionnaire with one or more applicable controls related to the filter criteria, the system displays an alert and the report cannot be generated. To generate the report anyway, mark the checkbox Generate report even if scope is empty checkbox.

10. To continue, click Generate Report. If you want to quit the operation, clink Cancel.

11. All reports provided by the system include a menu on top to facilitate navigation. If you want to send the report via e-mail, click Send. The message template for sending reports and the message service must have been configured correctly in the Administration module.

 

The system displays an area where you can specify recipients for the e-mail. You can insert e-mail addresses by clicking To (see figure below) or manually, separating each address by a semicolon. The system accepts a maximum of 30 e-mail addresses.

 

 

If, for example, you selected Person, the system displays a window where you can select the people to which you want to send the report (see figure below).
