Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) software manages the processes and the risk related data that drive risk behaviour, including Risks, Controls, Issues and Actions, Incidents, Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), Audit Findings, Compliance Obligations, Risk Control Self-Assessment (RCSA), Compliance Questions, and Compliance Attestations to name a few.
Tracking this data helps an organisation manage risk through improved knowledge and understanding. A good ERM framework will provide Business Intelligence (BI) analytics to visualise this data to enable business users to make better decisions.The analytics should cover all levels of the organisation vertically from strategic, through to tactical and operational-level decision making.
The BI capability should also integrate the concepts horizontally into visualisations that clearly show the relationships between the different risk management drivers, for example, the number of controls for each risk.
Visualising how these drivers change with time is crucial to a better understanding of risk, which is now possible with the introduction of “Historical Models” for Protecht.ERM.

Today I'm going to tell you how you can improve your insight into risk management using Protecht's historical models.
Historical models allow us to look at data in the past. Existing clients have the advantage that they don't need to start all over. They can use their existing ERM data with historical models.
Now, historical models allows us to do things like compare risks over time, compare the trends of risks over time, or even look back at a point in time for a value of a risk. The risk in motion trend dashboard allows us to link a number of different risk entities together, such as risk, control, actions, incidents, compliance, and shows the trend over time which helps decision making for a risk manager.
We can also apply predictive analytics to the historical models which helps us do things like predict trends of risks of over time, optimise decision making, and also prescribe decision making, so it actually tells a user how best to use a Protecht.ERM system.
