Advisory & Data Protection
A living risk register in Clarity, kept honest by consultant-led reviews — cyber risk continuously identified, assessed, treated and owned.
Most risk registers are written once, reviewed under duress and trusted by nobody. The spreadsheet ages, ownership blurs, and when systems, suppliers or incidents change the picture, the register doesn't. Blackfoot's risk management as a service replaces that with a managed, platform-backed approach: cyber and information security risk continuously identified, assessed, prioritised and monitored in our Clarity portal.
This is an ongoing service, not a software licence or a one-off assessment. The core is Clarity's risk module: your risk register, structured assessments, treatment planning, ownership assignment, task tracking and dashboards — with risks and treatments mapped to controls, custom control sets where you need them, and unlimited users so accountability sits with the actual risk owners.
Platform enablement gets it fitted to you: an agreed risk framework and scoring approach, a workable ownership and treatment structure, practical onboarding and ongoing how-to support. Documents and evidence attach directly to risks, treatment plans and controls, so context lives with the risk instead of in someone's inbox. No abandoned tooling, no six-month configuration project.
Programme oversight is the difference between a register and a programme. Our consultants run regular risk review sessions — examining treatment progress, challenging stale entries and providing the soft accountability that keeps the process active rather than passive. Risk ownership and acceptance decisions stay firmly with you; we make sure they keep getting made.
The outcome is a risk picture that stays current as your organisation changes: clearer prioritisation of treatment and security investment, a strong thread from risks to actions to owners, and evidence you can put in front of boards, auditors and insurers. It pairs naturally with Compliance as a Service — risks and controls in one place — and with Third-Party Risk Management for the supplier dimension.
Risks, assessments and treatments maintained continuously in Clarity — not a spreadsheet resurrected the week before a board meeting.
Regular sessions review treatment progress, challenge stale risks and keep momentum — expert oversight, not just a tool subscription.
Risk and treatment mapping to control sets, with control tests, so mitigation claims are backed by evidence rather than optimism.
Every risk and treatment has a named owner, with task notifications and reminders that stop actions quietly dying.
Risk owners across the business work directly in Clarity, with dashboards giving leadership the live picture at a glance.
Risk acceptance stays with you — the service ensures assessment, treatment and review keep happening around those decisions.
We establish your risk framework, scoring approach and ownership structure — pragmatic and consistent, matched to how your organisation works.
Clarity's risk module is set up with your register, control sets and responsibilities, and your team is onboarded with practical training.
Risks are assessed consistently, prioritised by likelihood and impact, and given treatment plans with owners, tasks and dates.
Consultant-led review sessions examine treatment progress and emerging risks, keeping the register aligned with your current exposure.
Dashboards and documented history give boards, auditors and insurers a defensible, current view of cyber risk and what's being done about it.
Straight answers to what prospective clients ask us most.
A managed subscription in which Blackfoot provides the platform, structure and expert oversight to keep your cyber risk management continuous. Risks are identified, assessed, treated and monitored in the Clarity portal, with consultant-led sessions keeping the process active.
Spreadsheets record risk; they don't manage it. Clarity links risks to treatments, owners, controls and evidence with reminders and dashboards — and the consultant-led reviews ensure the register reflects today's exposure, not the day it was written.
No. Risk ownership and acceptance decisions remain with your organisation, as they must. Our role is the process and the challenge: making sure risks are assessed consistently, treatments progress and nothing stalls unnoticed.
The service focuses on cyber and information security risk; it doesn't extend to broader enterprise risk categories, and it doesn't include formal audits or certifications. It does, however, produce exactly the risk evidence those audits ask for.
Naturally — they share the Clarity portal. Compliance as a Service manages your frameworks and controls, Third-Party Risk Management covers supplier exposure, and the risk module ties the threads together into one picture.
