These join the existing supported languages. Users can select their preferred language in IT Settings.

Organisational Risk – Redesigned Cards View

The Organisational Risk screen has been updated with an improved card-based layout, making it easier to review risk items at a glance.

Vendor IT Risk – Linked TOMs per Question

When reviewing Vendor IT Risk assessments, each individual question now shows the Technical and Organisational Measures (TOMs) linked to it, giving a clearer picture of which controls apply to each risk question.

Status Menu Active State

All major record types (ROPA, Assets, Vendors, Assessments, TOMs, DPIA, Policies, Legitimate Interest, Meetings & Activities, Retentions & Deletions, DCP, Tasks) now display an active status indicator in the status menu, making it immediately clear which workflow stage a record is currently in.
