Run a Risk Remediation Plan

Running Risk Remediation generates a plan for all users on your account.

Rerunning a risk remediation plan (RRP) creates a new plan. Previous plans are not deleted — they remain available as historical plans. You can access and download historical plans by selecting See Historical Plans on the plan details page. Historical plans are available for one year after calculation.

RRPs cannot be run if a risk vector has less than five findings or only has Neutral findings. Plans are calculated based on the presence of findings that positively or negatively impact your risk vector grade.

Instructions

Run the First Risk Remediation Plan

This action runs your first RRP. Once run, RRPs are visible to all users in your organization.

  1. In the SPM App, select Action Plans from the navigation menu.
  2. Select Risk Remediation.
  3. Choose which risk vector to run a plan for, then select Run Risk Remediation Plan.

Rerun a Risk Remediation Plan

Periodically check your RRP to keep track of which findings you still need to fix. If a new finding occurs, rerun the RRP to get an updated version of the steps needed to improve your risk vector grade.

  1. From the RRP overview page, select View details.
  2. Select Rerun Plan.

Run a Custom Risk Remediation Plan

  1. From the Risk Remediation plan overview page, select View Details.
  2. Choose Change Plan in upper right hand corner, and Create New Plan.
  3. Add plan details, sharing privileges, exclude specific findings, and optionally apply filters to scope findings (e.g., by Last Seen date). 
  4. Select Save Settings, which will run the plan. This may take a few minutes. 
  5. View updated plan. You may also compare the base plan, schedule the plan, or run a forecast off of the new plan.

A custom plan defaults to only being viewable by you, unless  shared with users from your company in Plan Settings.

Troubleshooting

  • You can only run an RRP for your My Company and companies you subscribe to with My Subsidiary subscriptions. If you receive the error "You do not have permission for that entity," please make sure that you are subscribed to the company using a My Subsidiary subscription.
