Overview
Every control has an automated health indicator that assesses whether the control is being properly maintained. The health status is based on linked risks, evidence sources, and review dates.
Health Status Levels
Control health is displayed as a colour-coded indicator:
Green — "Healthy" — the control is in good standing
Yellow — "Needs monitoring" — there are issues that should be addressed
Red — "Needs attention" — there are critical gaps that require immediate action
Conditions for Green (Healthy)
A control shows Green when all of the following are true:
Linked risks are present
Evidence sources are present
The review date is not due soon (more than 30 days away)
Conditions for Yellow (Needs Monitoring)
A control shows Yellow when any of the following are true:
No evidence sources have been added (but linked risks are present and review is on time)
The review date is due soon (within approximately 20–30 days)
Conditions for Red (Needs Attention)
A control shows Red when any of the following are true:
The review date is overdue (in the past)
No linked risks and no evidence sources
