GO BEYOND SECURITY RATINGS

Protect your digital assets

You rely on your third- and fourth-party vendors to do business, but those vendors also pose risk to your enterprise’s sensitive data. RiskRecon gives you accurate, non-invasive visibility into your vendors’ security postures and then ranks vulnerabilities in order of priority so you know which issues to tackle first.

With our third-party cyber risk assessments, you’ll also be provided with custom-fitted risk action plans so you can immediately start engaging with your vendor for remediation. And if a vendor’s cyber risk degrades or an element falls out of policy, you’ll be notified instantly.
