Vendor Risk Management (Third-Party Risk)

A right-sized vendor risk program that integrates with procurement and scales with growth.

Good fit when…

  • SaaS sprawl
    Shadow IT and new vendors add hidden exposure.
  • Customer questionnaires
    You need confidence in third-party security claims.
  • Procurement pain
    Build a workflow that doesn’t slow the business.
  • Regulatory pressure
    Demonstrable third-party oversight is required.
Engagement style: Most work is done collaboratively with your IT/ops leaders, with executive-level accountability and reporting.
