AuditBoard ORM helps enterprises better surface and manage risks by enabling risk leaders to effectively engage their frontline operational teams. It also empowers operational teams to easily self-report risks, self-assess controls, and log risk events with visibility into their broader risk program. As a result, organizations are able to drive greater risk awareness and reduce risk exposure.
