Hi Dewight,

We have used tools made available through the Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC).  The Information 
Security Program Self-Assessment Tool performs calculations for you based on your answers. I think it provides a good 
baseline to build upon. Here are the links to the resources.

Old one found on kansasregents.org, direct download link to an xls:

Good luck!

Subject: [SECURITY] Risk Assessment Tool

Hello,

We are looking for a tool to help us better perform risk assessments  As such, I am reaching out to this list serve to 
see what others are using as a tool. Please share what ever tool you are using, with that said we are looking for a 
tool that can:

Offer delegation of all or parts of the survey to others, in a secure way (not one account for everyone to share, which 
I had a vendor give as an option).
Roll up the results from the different units into a very general holistic look of a campus.
Preferably uses ISO 27002-2013  Standard, but can use NIST 800-53 r3/r4
Easy to get the tool up and going, and a small learning curve to implement.

Thank you,
