The Configuration Compliance application includes two types of calculators, Risk Calculators
and Risk Score Rollup Calculators. These calculator groups are enabled by default.

The Risk Score calculator group has been renamed to Risk Calculators.

The Risk Score Rollup Calculators includes rollup calculators for configuration tests and remediation tasks.

Configuring risk and rollup calculators for remediation of test results and remediation tasks includes the following tasks:

* Create a risk calculator
* Create a risk score rollup calculator

After you create a risk calculator, it is available for calculations with the next data
ingestion. After you create it, you may also prefer to apply it on-demand.
