### Add Risks from the Risk Library

Sprinto offers a comprehensive, curated library of industry-standard risks. This is the quickest and most recommended way to populate your risk register.

#### To add risks from the library:

1. Log in to the Sprinto dashboard and navigate to **Risks**.
2. In the Risk register tab, click **+ Add risks** and select **Add risks from Sprinto’s curated library**.

Once added, each risk must be scored to complete its registration.
{% endhint %}

### Add Risks Manually

If your organisation has risks that are not covered in Sprinto’s predefined library, you can define them manually.

#### To add custom risks:

1. Log in to the Sprinto dashboard and navigate to **Risks**.
2. In the Risk register tab, click **+ Add risks** and select **Add a new risk**.
