Vendors and partners reach your data and your systems. Most organizations assess that risk once, at the point of signing, and never again.
Has any third party's posture changed since the access it holds was last assessed?
Two vendors moved tier after a scope change. Reassessment triggered and the owners notified automatically.
There is no single inventory of who has access to what, so the population being governed is a guess.
Due diligence is a questionnaire filed after signature, reviewed by nobody.
Security obligations are missing from contracts, or present and never enforced.
A vendor's posture changes after onboarding and nothing in the process notices.
A maintained inventory of third parties, tiered by the access and data they actually hold.
Due diligence proportionate to tier, completed before commitment rather than after.
Security requirements written into agreements and monitored against.
Third-party risk reported alongside internal risk, because the exposure is the same exposure.

The obligations this solution is built to govern. Wider coverage sits on the Platform pages.
Establishing the inventory and the assessment model is a defined piece of work. Keeping it true as vendors are added, changed and retired is continuous — which is what CISOaaS takes on, along with the reassessment cycle and the reporting.
This solution addresses the problem. These are the Platform services that run it as a programme.
Address this requirement as a focused engagement, or fold it into the continuous CISOaaS programme that keeps it running afterwards.
