Release Date: September 17th, 2021

WHAT’S NEW?

Catalog: Data as a Service

The data catalog delivers ready-to-use data and content that you can use to significantly reduce the time and resource investments spent quantifying the risks most common to your organization.

• Data is sourced from industry reports, data partnerships, and data science research.

• The data is evaluated and transformed into risk measurement building blocks.

• Use the data as-is or as a base that you can easily adjust to meet your specific needs.

CATALOG

The new data catalog can be accessed via the Catalog button in the navigation pane.

Clicking Catalog displays a modal that provides information about catalogs and how they can be used to kickstart your risk quantification.

From the modal users can select the following options:

• Do not show this dialog again: This closes the modal and navigates to the catalog. This modal will not be shown again when clicking Catalog from the navigation pane.

• Close: Closes the modal and returns to the previous screen.

• Go to Catalog: Closes the modal and navigates to the catalog.

Catalog Overview

The Catalog page includes a brief overview of the content that is available for use. This information can be collapsed or expanded based on how much each user wants to see.

Content Packs

The Starter content pack, provided by RiskLens, provides a collection of data helpers that are immediately useful and can significantly reduce the effort (and associated costs) needed to research and create your own collection. Click View Item Details from the menu options to see additional information associated with the content pack.

Selected Content Pack Items

Selecting a content pack with the radio buttons displays the items included with that catalog.

From the menu options for an item, click View Item Details to display additional information including the following:

• The data helper description

• The associated workshop question

• The date that the data helper catalog item was last updated

Add to Library

Within the platform, the libraries (as seen on the left side of the platform: Risk Assessments, Scenarios, etc.) houses all the items you or your organization have created. To add catalog items to your libraries (download from the catalog), in the View Item Details window or the item’s menu on the Catalog page, click the Add to Library button.

Note: You must have permission to create the type of item to use this button. For example, to add a data helper from the catalog, you must be able to create data helpers in the platform.

If a catalog item already exists in the library with the same name, a confirmation window displays advising that the item will be added with an updated name (an increasing numerical value appended to the end of the name).

After clicking Add Item to confirm the addition, the item is added to your library.

When an item has been added to the library, an icon displays in the Selected Content Pack Items view.

For organizations using groups:

• When a user has Manage Global Items permission, any data helpers that are added will be added as global item and can be accessed by all groups within the organization.

• If a user does not have Manage Global Items permission, data helpers will be added to the group they are in at the time the data helper is added to their library.

• When the group is changed, the Selected Items View will be updated to reflect any items that were added that pertain to only a specific group as well as items that were added as global.

DATA HELPERS

Catalog Provider Information

The Data Helper library list page now includes a Provider column, which will also be added to other libraries as more catalog items are released. When an item from the catalog is added to a library, the associated provider name displays in this column to assist in identifying items that originated from a catalog. In addition to being able to view the provider information from the library list page, the associated provider will be displayed when viewing details of the data helper. The layout of the page has been updated to view all details more easily, including the provider’s name.

Modified Indicator

When updates are made to a catalog item that has been added to a library, a modified indicator and tooltip display on the item. This indicator provides context that the data within the item no longer aligns with the original catalog item. The indicator displays on both the library list view next to the provider name, and the item’s detail page.

RISK ASSESSMENTS

Comparison Assessments

Data Helper Import

Data helper data can now be imported to the scenario workshops in comparison assessment analyses. While managing a scenario in a comparison analysis click Import to open the data helper selection dialog.

In the dialog, choose a data helper answer and click Import to complete a one-time import of the data helper data.

When you import a data helper, the following occurs:

• The imported workshop inputs overwrite the previous data inputs

• Imported data helper rationale displays in a separate field

• The name of the source data helper displays

Imported workshop inputs can be edited as needed, but users cannot edit the imported data helper rationale. Changes to the source data helper will not affect the scenario. Since this is a data import and not a data subscription (like timeline scenarios and assets use) the imported data is not dynamically updated by changes to the source data helper.

Timeline Assessments

Analysis Scenarios Report

The Analysis Scenario Report is now configurable by loss exposure summary reporting metric. Selecting a metric from the Report Options area will affect the Loss Event Frequency and ALE columns of the report.

SCENARIOS

Triage Workshop Mode

There is now an option to choose Once per Twenty Years for past and future frequency when using triage mode for scenario workshops.

API

There are no API updates for this release.

GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS

Groups

A tooltip will now provide additional context as to when a group cannot be changed.

SECURITY

All changes to the primary administration user are now logged in the application audit logs.

BUG FIXES

• Addressed the issue where Risk Landscape Clarity package was not displaying workshop modes as expected.

• Addressed an issue where comparison assessment analyses would run indefinitely.

• Addressed an issue where scenarios that were copied into comparison risk assessments and then renamed could not be renamed back to their original name.

• Addressed an issue where scenario scope edits to method categories could not be saved correctly.

KNOWN ISSUES AND EXCLUSIONS

• The minimum supported browser resolution is 1440 px width. Some application content and functionality are not visible or functional at smaller resolutions.

• Some asset and scenario workshop keyboard control options do not function as expected in IE and Edge browsers.

• There is a known issue when session timeout is set to 15 minutes because of a limitation with Microsoft.NET Framework. This framework dictates that the session cookie cannot be updated during the first half of the user’s session. When a user is inactive, the platform’s warning popup displays when there are 10 minutes left in the session. Since a user cannot update the cookie within the first half of the session (before the halfway mark at 7:30 of 15:00), if the user clicks Stay Logged In in those first 2.5 minutes, their session will not reset to 15 minutes and will time out at the end of the original 15 minutes
