8. Risk catalog#

The risk catalog serves as a knowledge base, which users subsequently use when processing risk analyses and risk treatment plans. It contains data, which are subsequently automatically suggested to users for completion in relevant forms, thus making their work in the system more efficient. In addition to the catalog supplied by Risk Flow, users have the opportunity to build and develop their own catalog, thanks to the ability to add their own texts when performing actions in the application.
