Vendor Inherent Risk Scoring

Why Strategic Vendor Risk Prioritization Matters
Vendors come with varying levels of risk, making strategic vendor risk prioritization essential for an efficient third-party risk management (TPRM) program. Without a structured approach to profiling, tiering, and categorizing vendors, organizations may waste resources on unnecessary due diligence or overlook high-risk third parties.
ThirdSentry simplifies inherent risk scoring by providing an outsourced, AI-driven risk assessment process. Our automated scoring system evaluates vendors based on security, compliance, and operational risk factors—before considering any compensating controls.
