Day 1
Your program is operational
Every day without documented security governance is a day your organization is exposed to audits, questionnaires, and incidents it cannot respond to systematically.
Risk Management Toolkit

Your board wants a risk picture. Your auditor wants evidence. Your insurer wants controls.
Right now you’re pulling numbers from three separate spreadsheets, hoping they’re consistent, and building a board deck by hand. When someone asks “how does this risk affect our critical processes?” — you don’t have a quick answer.
This toolkit gives you a desktop application where risk assessment, business impact analysis, and vendor management are connected — plus 20 professional documents. When someone asks about your risk posture, you open the dashboard and show them.
What’s inside
Show your risk posture
The tools and evidence auditors, boards, and customers ask for first.

Why the integration matters
A vendor scores poorly on their assessment
The linked risk in your register is flagged. Your dashboard updates. The board deck reflects the change. You didn't open a second spreadsheet.
A critical risk affects a business process
The BIA module highlights it. RTO/RPO targets are visible alongside the risk score. When you present to the board, the connection is already there.
Your auditor asks for evidence across all domains
One view shows compliance artefacts across risks, controls, vendors, and processes. Where evidence is expected but missing, it tells you.
The cost comparison
Who this is for
✓ Right fit
Organizations that need to demonstrate risk maturity to boards, auditors, insurers, or customers — and want risk, BIA, and vendor management in one system instead of three spreadsheets.
✗ Not the right fit
Enterprises with existing GRC platforms. Organizations that only need a basic risk register without BIA or vendor management — the Security Program Foundation Toolkit covers that at $497.
Common questions
Is this a desktop application or a browser app?
Desktop application. You download and install it like any software. It runs natively on Windows with no browser required. All data is stored locally on your machine — nothing is transmitted to any server.
Which AI providers are supported?
Six providers: Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI (ChatGPT), Google (Gemini), xAI (Grok), DeepSeek, and local LLMs (Ollama, LM Studio, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint). You bring your own API key — it's stored encrypted in your OS keychain. The app dynamically fetches available models from your provider.
Do I need AI to use this?
No. Every feature works without AI. The AI integration is optional — it assists with risk scoring, treatment recommendations, scenario narratives, and board reporting. If you don't configure an API key, the app works fully without it.
How is this different from buying three separate toolkits?
The standalone products have no data integration. This product unifies them — risk data flows to your BIA, vendor findings create risk entries, evidence tracks across all domains, and one dashboard shows your complete posture. Plus AI features and 12 framework mappings that don't exist in the individual products.
How does this compare to GRC platforms?
GRC platforms cost $10K–$100K+/year with implementation projects, per-seat pricing, and lock-in. Your data lives on their servers. This is a one-time purchase desktop application — your data stays on your machine, no subscription, no per-seat fees. Everything exports to standard formats if you outgrow it.
Does this satisfy ISO 27001 requirements?
It covers ISO 27001:2022 risk assessment (6.1.2), risk treatment (6.1.3), Statement of Applicability, and ISO 22301 BIA requirements. The evidence tracking produces the documentation set certification auditors expect.
Is my data secure?
All data is stored locally in an encrypted SQLite database on your machine. API keys are stored in your OS keychain (Windows Credential Manager). No data is transmitted to any server — AI calls go directly from your machine to your chosen provider using your own API key.
Do I get updates if the product is improved?
Yes. If we update this product within 12 months of your purchase — framework changes, new features, content improvements — you receive the updated version automatically at no additional cost. After 12 months, you keep everything you have permanently. Future updates are available at a renewal discount.
Is AI used in creating these documents?
Ridgeline uses AI tools in the research and drafting process. All documentation is written, reviewed, and validated by a security practitioner to ensure it is operationally sound and aligned with current frameworks.
What if we need help setting it up?
Our Document Customization service will configure the app with your data and customize all 20 documents. Foundation tier from $1,997, Compliance from $3,497. Delivered in 7–10 business days.
