Engaging Teams, Roles and Responsibilities

Cybersecurity is too critical—and too cross-functional—to be siloed in one department. That’s why our Security Risk Management Program is built for unlimited users with role-based access and separation of duties baked in. From the CISO setting strategy to the Incident Response Team, IT Risk Oversight, Security Engineers, Governance Committees, and System Admins, every stakeholder has a secure place in the platform.

Each user sees only what they’re responsible for, acts within defined permissions, and stays coordinated through centralized workflows and shared standards. For example, security engineers can configure scans, while governance leaders track remediation without risking system exposure. The result? A program that’s proactive, accountable, and fully defensible—just like your security posture should be.

Your Roadmap to Security Risk Management Success

Enterprise Risk Management as the Foundation

Every effective security program starts with a solid governance backbone. Define your governance model using LogicManager’s Risk Maturity Model (RMM) and formalize foundational elements such as your ERM charter, oversight roles, risk taxonomy, and system model inventory.

As the bedrock for your Security Risk Management Program, this ERM foundation ensures every control, asset, and incident is aligned to your enterprise risk strategy. Our expert advisory services guide you through best practices, so your security function isn’t just reactive—it’s strategically indispensable.

IT Policy, Asset & Application Inventory

A comprehensive view of your IT environment is essential to security and compliance. This solution allows you to define and govern IT policies while maintaining a live inventory of assets and applications—eliminating silos and uncovering hidden risks.

With everything centralized, it’s easier to enforce policies, assign ownership, and ensure alignment across teams. The ability to map assets to associated risks, controls, and dependencies enables smarter prioritization and faster decision-making. This isn’t just record-keeping—it’s a foundation for action.

Real-time updates and automated workflows keep stakeholders engaged, while dashboards and reports provide insights that help justify investments and prepare for audits. Whether you’re managing internal controls, vendor systems, or cloud environments, this approach ensures your organization knows what it has, where it lives, and how it’s protected—so you can drive secure operations with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Threat & Vulnerability Assessments

Uncover what’s putting your organization at risk—before attackers do. Surface vulnerabilities across your systems, configurations, and user access points while linking each to relevant business risks and compliance requirements.

By applying a risk-based scoring system, you’ll avoid chasing every low-priority issue and instead focus attention where the consequences are greatest. With built-in frameworks and automated workflows, teams stay aligned on what’s being assessed, what needs remediation, and why it matters.

Stakeholders across IT, risk, and compliance are engaged through real-time visibility and ownership, transforming threat identification from a one-off exercise into a continuous governance practice. At the same time, dashboards reveal broader themes like misaligned standards or recurring risk patterns—providing the insights needed to strengthen your security posture over time. When you assess vulnerabilities holistically, you’re not just finding flaws—you’re building resilience through informed, coordinated action.

Security Controls Deployment

Effective security isn’t about more controls—it’s about the right ones, deployed where they’ll have the biggest impact. This solution helps teams implement governance-aligned controls for access, system configuration, and monitoring while connecting them directly to associated risks and business processes.

Prioritization becomes easy when you can see how each control supports compliance obligations and mitigates high-impact threats. Cross-functional engagement is built in, empowering stakeholders to collaborate on control design, execution, and accountability through automated workflows and no-code configuration.

Instead of managing controls in spreadsheets or isolated systems, you’ll operate from a shared source of truth—one that evolves as your environment changes. Visual reports and analytics reveal what’s working and where gaps remain, allowing for confident updates and informed audits. By embedding risk-based control management into everyday operations, you elevate security from a checkbox to a strategic advantage.

Penetration Testing & Control Validation

Testing without context wastes time. This solution transforms penetration tests, scans, and control validations into a strategic risk governance practice. Simulations are conducted within a framework that links each test to associated assets, risks, and policies—so every result is meaningful.

You’ll identify weaknesses not just in technology, but in process and design, enabling faster, targeted remediation. Test findings automatically trigger workflows, notifications, and root cause analysis that engage the right people at the right time. Prioritization is built into every step, helping your teams separate noise from real exposure and avoid repeated errors.

Dashboards help track trends, benchmark progress, and tell a story your executives care about: what’s at risk, how it’s being tested, and whether controls are holding up under pressure. With this approach, testing becomes more than an annual event—it’s an ongoing discipline that fuels smarter decisions and stronger defenses.

Cybersecurity Incident Response

When something goes wrong, response time is everything. This solution ensures security events—from control failures to full-scale breaches—are logged, investigated, and addressed with structure and speed.

Incidents are automatically linked to affected assets, policies, controls, and risks, providing instant context for impact analysis and escalation. Predefined workflows engage relevant teams in a coordinated response, breaking down silos and ensuring no time is lost to confusion or missed handoffs. Real-time dashboards track incident status, response timeliness, and recurrence patterns—turning every incident into a learning opportunity.

The ability to tie events back to broader governance gaps or systemic failures reveals actionable insights that help prevent future disruptions. This risk-based approach doesn’t just help you recover—it strengthens your organization’s immune system. By embedding response into your governance framework, you build trust, demonstrate accountability, and ensure your business stays protected in the face of growing threats.

Turning Activities Into Actionable Intelligence

Security risk management isn’t just about checking boxes—it’s about showing impact. LogicManager transforms your operational efforts into executive-ready intelligence with built-in reporting, customizable insight workbenches, and our proprietary Risk Ripple technology.

Risk Ripple connects the dots across your environment—linking vulnerabilities to assets, controls to policies, and incidents to downstream consequences. That means when something changes, you see its impact across the entire program in real time.

With tailored dashboards and automated reporting, CISOs and leadership teams can demonstrate risk reduction, control effectiveness, and business alignment—all without pulling manual reports or chasing down data. Whether you’re preparing for the board, an auditor, or a governance review, your insights are already there—accurate, defensible, and actionable.

This isn’t just visibility—it’s intelligence that drives performance.
