    Calculate based on Option to assess the types of control. Choices are the following:
    • Control environment assessment: Select this option if you don’t want to assess individual controls, but instead want to assess the overall effectiveness of the control environment.

    • Maximum: Maximum value of the factor responses.
    • Average: Average value of the factor responses.

    Hinweis:
    Section label renaming applies only to the advanced risk assessment interface while leaving the terminology used in reports, dashboards, heatmaps, and other areas unchanged.
