Manage the vendor lifecycle. Assess comprehensive risk. Monitor continuously. Stay ahead of emerging threats with 360° coverage: evidence-based review from the inside, continuous monitoring from the outside.
Aligned to regulators and
standards worldwide
A point-in-time assessment tells you how a vendor looked on the day it was reviewed. VendRisk360 pairs evidence-based review of the vendor's controls with continuous monitoring of what the outside world can see, so risk that changes between assessments does not go unnoticed.
Inside-out
Outside-in
Most programs still run on questionnaires, inboxes and a review that is out of date the day it is signed. Here is what changes, line by line.
The usual way
Spreadsheets and point-in-time reviews
With VendRisk360
One platform for the whole lifecycle
Vendor inventory
Spreadsheets, inboxes and shared drives, each with a different version of the truth
One record per vendor, product and relationship, with owner, tier and full history
Depth of review
The same long questionnaire for every vendor, whatever the risk
Criticality tiering decides the depth, so critical vendors get full due diligence and low-risk ones do not
Evidence
Self-attested answers accepted at face value; expired reports go unnoticed
Answers checked against evidence, with SOC reports and certificates tracked for scope and expiry
Between assessments
A point-in-time snapshot that is out of date the day after sign-off
Continuous outside-in monitoring of attack surface, breaches, adverse news and regulatory actions
Fourth parties
Invisible until one of them causes an incident
Nth-party intelligence maps who your vendors depend on and where concentration risk sits
Vendor experience
Email chains, attachments and repeated chasing
A secure vendor portal for questionnaires, documents and remediation, with reminders built in
Decisions and audit
Approvals and risk acceptances scattered across email; audits mean weeks of reconstruction
Policy-based sign-off, risk acceptance with owners and expiry dates, and a complete audit trail
Reporting
Board packs assembled by hand each quarter
Board and executive reporting generated from live data, ready for examiners
AI
Either no automation, or black-box scores nobody can explain
Optional AI that drafts and extracts, while your people review and make every decision
From intake to offboarding, every vendor, supplier and outsourcing arrangement gets one record, one risk rating and one audit trail, with assessments, monitoring and reporting working from the same data.
PlatformYour team manages every vendor, sends due diligence requests, reviews, records and signs off, with every step tracked.
ServiceYou onboard the vendor. Our certified assessors collect the evidence, assess the risk and follow up on findings.
ServiceOutside-in coverage between assessments, with signals confirmed before they reach your team.
Onboarding, due diligence, monitoring, reassessment and offboarding share one record, so nothing is re-keyed and every decision has its evidence behind it. Step through the stages.
The business owner requests a vendor in a guided intake. Answers about data, access and criticality set the tier, so the depth of review is decided before anyone sends a questionnaire.

Assessments and reviews by certified, experienced assessors

Three moments that used to take weeks of email and spreadsheets, and now take minutes.
Between assessments, VendRisk360 watches each vendor from the outside. When something changes, you see what changed, which vendor and service it affects, who owns the relationship and what to do next.
