Survey Score Config
Overview
With the survey score feature, the value of risks based on survey answers can be calculated. Risks can be identified from survey answers, values can be assigned to these risks, the risk scoring can be configured, based on the user's knowledge, and then calculated.
The survey score conveys the value of the risks associated with the responses of any given survey.
To configure the survey score, follow these steps:
- Log in to your Data Governance Tool account.
- From the hamburger menu present on the top left corner of the Dashboard, click on Survey
- From the hamburger menu present on the left of the screen, click on Survey
Once on the Surveys page, disable the Distribution view\
Once the Distribution View has been disabled, click on Settings icon associated with the Survey of your requirement\
On the Settings page, click on Survey Score Configuration\
Here, on this page, you can configure the survey score\
To configure the score, first click on the Add Data button\
On doing so, a new rule configuration will appear\
Each rule configuration will have the following fields:\ Category: Domain users can title the category of the rule based on their requirements.
Survey Name: This field displays the name of the survey for which you are configuring the score.\ This field cannot be edited
Questions: The questions drop-down menu shows all the questions present in that survey\
Query: There are 3 possible queries; Boolean, Keyword and Range. Examples of each will be given below
Match Count: The number of actual keywords in the answer that match with the rule configuration. This is only applicable to the Keyword Query
Weight: The weight of the risk as defined by the domain user. The weight value is multiplied by the Found Value
Found Score: The score if the value of the query matches with the value in the survey answer.\ Currently, the Found Score values can be 10 (High risk), 5 (moderate risk), and 1 (low risk). If any other value is inserted in this field, the score will not be calculated.
Not Found Score: The score if the value of the query does not match with the value in the survey answer.\ Currently, the Not Found Score values can be 10 (High risk), 5 (moderate risk), and 1 (low risk). If any other value is inserted in this field, the score will not be calculated.
Data Empty Null Score: The score if there is no answer present for that survey question
Action: The rule can be deleted by clicking on the delete icon against that rule.
Based on the scores calculated here, each survey answer will be categorised as High risk, Moderate risk and Low risk. The configured risk categories will be flagged on the View Answers page as shown below\
[Boolean Query:]{.underline} This query is used when the value of the Survey Answer is either True or False. The example below depicts a Boolean query \ In this rule, which has been defined under the Privacy category, the value of the Query is "False", the Found Score is "5" and the Weight is "5", meaning that if the value found in the survey answer is "False", then the score of the Privacy risk will be 25; Weight x Found Score, 5 x 5. \ This question will be categorised as Moderate risk (as Found Score is 5)\ If the value in the survey answer is not "False" (as defined by the Query) then the score of the Privacy risk will be 5; Weight into Not Found Score, 5 x 1. \ This question would be categorised as Low risk (as Not Found score is 1)\ If there is no value in the survey answer, then the score of the Privacy risk will be 15; Weight x Null Score, 5 x 3.
[Keyword Query:]{.underline} This query is used when the values in the survey answers are in the form of multiple keywords. The example below depicts a Keyword Query
In this rule, the values of the Query are -- "Bank Statements, invoices and resumes". The Match Count is "2", the Weight score is "4" and the Found score is "10". This means that if any 2 (Match Count) of the Query values are found in the survey answer, then the score of the Privacy risk will be 40; Weight x Found Score, 4 x 10. \ This question will be categorised as High risk (as Found Score is 10)\ In the case that only less than 2 values found in the survey answer match the query, then the privacy risk score will be 4; Weight x Not Found Score, 4 x 1. \ This question will be categorised as Low risk (as Not Found Score is 1)\ If there are no values in the survey answer, then the score of the Privacy risk will be 4; Weight x Null Score, 4 x 1.
[Range Query:]{.underline} This query is used to define a numerical range when the values in the survey answers are numbers. The example below depicts a Range Query
In this example, the risk category is Security.
In this rule, the value of the Query is > 50, the Found Score is 5 and the Weight is 4, meaning that if the value found in the survey answer is greater than 50, then the score of the Security risk will be 20; Weight x Found Score, 4 x 5.\ This question will be categorised as Moderate risk (as Found Score is 5) \ If the value in the survey answer is less than or equal to 50, the Security risk will be 4; Weight x Not Found Score, 4 x 1. \ This question will be categorised as Low risk (as Not Found Score is 1)\ If there is no value in the survey answer, then the Security Risk will be 0; Weight x Null Score; 4 x 0
The range query can include different conditions, examples are \ Less than: \<50 \ Greater than: >50 \ Less than or equal to: \<=50 \ Greater than or equal to: >=50 \ And conditional: >=50 and \<=60 \ Or conditional: \<=50 or >=60
*Note: The operation should always precede the number*
*Note: Scores can be configured in negative digits and decimal points.*
To copy/recreate an existing rule, click on the rule you want to copy and then the Duplicate Rule button. This will create another version of the selected rule. Changes can be made to this version as required.\
After making any changes/modifications to the rule, the Revert Scores button can be used to bring back the previously calculated scores (the scores before the latest changes were made). However, this only brings the last score, it cannot be used to bring back any scores before the last score\
Once the rules have been configured, click on the Save Configuration button\
However, to see the results of the configuration, click on the Calculate Scores button\
Once the scores have been generated, the following message will appear\
Generate Rules\ This feature is used for those questions with the multiple answer options like Checkbox and Radio group question types. Creating new rules for each option can be take up significant time.\ By clicking on this button, the Generate Rules box will appear. From the Question drop-down, select the required Checkbox, Radio Group or Drop-down question. Enter the Category and then click Generate\ On doing so, Rules for each answer option will appear on the configuration screen. The Query value will be automatically entered based on each answer option configured while creating the survey. The Found/Not Found, Match Count and Weight values can be specified here as needed.\
Clear Unsaved Rules\ Click on this button to remove any rule that has not been saved yet. Rules can be saved by clicking the Save Configuration button. If rules are created and not saved, then on clicking the Clear Unsaved Rules button, then these rules will be removed.\
Viewing the survey scores
