Risk Basics

Risk Categories

Risk categories are specific types of risks within larger areas—like cybersecurity within IT or fraud within finance. Categorizing risks helps you assign ownership and prioritize action.

Jiku organizes risks into categories automatically, so you can act quickly and efficiently.
