Cybersecurity Ratings and Supply Chain Management Services

The vendor is required to provide cybersecurity ratings and supply chain management services by evaluating our security posture, identifying vulnerabilities, and mitigating third-party risk.
1. Supply chain detection and response (SCDR):
•    The organization is exploring a new cybersecurity framework that identifies, prioritizes, and remediates vulnerabilities across an organization’s vendor ecosystem. 
•    Its purpose is preventing supply chain attacks from threat actors and mitigating concentration risk when critical providers experience outages or security failures. 
•    Platform’s supply chain detection and response platform should enhance the identification of critical issues, improve vendor responsiveness, and accelerates incident resolution.
2. Third-party cyber risk management: 
•    The organization can instantly evaluate the security posture of any third-party using an intuitive grading methodology that is highly correlated with breach likelihood. 
•    They are able to maintain visibility of supply chain risk by continuously monitoring vendors for exposure to zero-day vulnerabilities, disclosed breaches, or issues that are indicative of poor security standards.
3. Security questionnaires: 
•    The organization questionnaire framework within the platform can easily create custom questionnaires for specific security needs. 
•    Questionnaire responses are validated against real-time attack surface data, which helps the security team prioritize vendor outreach and have more effective discussions. 
•    They are able to communicate directly with vendors within the platform which reduces the inefficiencies of back-and-forth email communications. 
•    Provide documentation like soc2 reports for gaining additional context into the vendor’s security performance.
4. Portal and dashboard: 
•    A portal or dashboard identifies, prioritizes, and remediates critical vulnerabilities across your supply chain in real-time with a tiered based approach to arm you with the right amount of information or completely offloading vendor management to the experts at platform vendor while providing a white glove service approach in a 24/7 capacity.
