Learn how to see control responsibilities related to a requirement based assessment (RBA) without leaving the assessment response page

To learn how to create a requirement based assessment (RBA), head here.

Responsibilities and related responsibility tasks can be viewed without having to leave the RBA, so that the respondent can quickly see control responsibility tasks' status and prove control performance.

Responsibility tasks can be viewed in an RBA conducted against:

The key here is that the controls/provisions used as requirements directly or indirectly link to responsibilities within 6clicks.

In this example, creating an RBA based on either "Example control set" or "Example authority linked to a control set" will let us see the responsibilities Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3 in the RBA.

When responding to a requirement based assessment, click on a requirement and the Requirement details tab will be automatically displayed in the side panel.

If the RBA is based on a control set, clicking the dropdown for the Responsibilities section shows the linked responsibilities.

If the RBA is based on an authority, clicking the dropdown for the Controls section shows its linked control/s, and clicking on a control shows its responsibilities.


Click the Clipboard next to the Responsibility name to view its tasks, if any.

Seeing how this responsibility and its tasks are being carried out from within the assessment may help the respondent better assess against the requirement.
