This unique benchmark is the direct result of risk leader collaborations, requested by a member developing their organisation’s first assurance plan. Five separate risk leaders from five different companies contributed their expertise and insight into this report.
The report combines high-level plan templates, implementation notes, and practitioner lessons learned. It may be used as a pulse check or starting point for any organisations in the early stages of their assurance mapping journey.
