What Is Third-Party Risk Management?

Control third-party vendor risk and improve your cyber security posture. Stay up to date with security research and global news about data breaches.

This is commonly known as third-party risk or vendor risk and can include financial, environmental, reputational, and security risks due to a vendor's access to intellectual property, sensitive data, personally identifiable information (PII), and protected health information (PHI).

After remediation (or lack thereof), your organization can decide whether to onboard the vendor or choose to look for a different vendor based on your risk tolerance, the criticality of the vendor, and any compliance requirements you may have.

With UpGuard Vendor Risk, you can create your own security questionnaires or pay to have our team of experts create one for your organization.
