Map your risk exposure: uncontrolled risks and single points of failure
You can't manage exposure you can't see. Structural risk, a risk with no control, a single point of failure, sits embedded in how your processes are built until it surfaces as an incident, an outage or an audit finding. IGX360 maps risk against your actual process model, so exposure is visible before it costs you.
Map your exposureWhat hidden exposure costs
Structural risk is cheapest to find in the model and most expensive to find in production. Left embedded, it surfaces after the fact, as the incident that takes down settlement, the outage with no fallback, the audit finding against a control that was never there. By then you're remediating under pressure, not designing the risk out.
How to find where you're exposed
Finding exposure systematically comes down to three questions asked against the model:
- Which risks have no control? A risk on the register with no control mapped to a process is an exposure nobody owns. Find these by mapping controls to processes and looking at the gaps.
- Where are the single points of failure? A system, team or step that multiple critical processes depend on, with no alternative path, is a single point of failure. Find these by tracing dependencies, not by asking people.
- Where does the control exist on paper but not in the process? A control documented but not performed is exposure disguised as coverage. Reconciling design against reality surfaces it.
IGX360's Risk and Resilience lenses run these questions across your canonical model, surfacing uncontrolled risks and single points of failure as traced results.
Not a claim. A traced answer.
Every exposure the model surfaces is traced: the risk, the process, the missing control, the dependency path. You're not handed a heatmap to trust; you're shown the structure behind each exposure.
Questions worth asking before you commit
Does this replace our risk register?
No. It maps your existing risks and controls against your processes and shows where coverage is missing.
How do you find single points of failure?
By tracing dependencies in the model: what depends on what, and where there's no alternative path.
What about risks we haven't identified?
The model surfaces structural exposure, uncontrolled risk and undocumented dependencies, including some you hadn't registered.
