Findings describe adverse issues discovered when assessing a control. If you discover an issue that needs to be resolved as part of a Control Assessment then select Add Finding. From this screen you will need to specify:

  • The Assessment Objective that was not met resulting in the Finding.

  • How the issue was discovered, whether through Interview, Examination, or Testing.

  • The Severity Rating for the Finding. This is somewhat subjective, and your organization may have its own guidelines about how severity ratings should be used.

  • The reason for the Severity Rating, and any other related information.

  • What should be done to fix the issue and when this should be completed by.

  • Related documents can also be linked to the Finding to provide specific evidence, interview transcripts, or other files that may be of use.
