New BitSight Innovations Help Organizations Achieve a Higher Standard for Third-Party Risk Management
Tuesday, June 9, 2020

New Capabilities Provide Intelligent Recommendations, Operational Guidance, and Risk Prioritization

BOSTON, June 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BitSight, the Standard in Security Ratings, today announced several new, innovative capabilities within its BitSight for Third-Party Risk Management solution that provide intelligent recommendations, operational guidance, and risk prioritization to enable more effective third-party cyber risk management. The enhanced platform helps organizations achieve greater operational efficiency and measurably reduce risk across their extended business ecosystem.

"Third-party ecosystems are expanding rapidly and organizations of all shapes and sizes struggle to create effective risk management programs," said Dave Fachetti, executive vice president of Strategy. "These enhancements will help our customers clearly understand and prioritize their portfolio of third-party risk and seamlessly integrate BitSight into their programs, resulting in reduced risk and improved operational efficiency."

BitSight surfaces actionable insights from the industry's broadest and deepest collection of security performance data and provides intelligent recommendations and guidance based on the largest customer base and most engaged network of users. The new BitSight for Third-Party Risk Management enhancements include the following:

    --  Portfolio Dashboard: Surfaces the most important information from across
        the BitSight platform onto a dynamic, customizable dashboard, enabling
        users to quickly visualize, identify, and prioritize urgent third-party
        risk issues from non-urgent ones.
    --  Life Cycle Stages: Provides customers specific engagement guidance
        during various stages of the vendor lifecycle -- from onboarding to
        ongoing monitoring to reassessment -- based on the nature of a
        third-party vendor's relationship with the customer, the stage of the
        relationship, and measured security performance.
    --  Risk Summary: Gives business context to technical findings, enabling
        customers to quickly identify and understand the most critical areas of
        concern related to third-party cyber risks, and accept or reject risk.
    --  Tier Recommender: Aids with setting the significance of a vendor
        relationship by leveraging tiering best practices observed across
        BitSight's customer base and providing intelligent recommendations.
    --  Assessment Reporting: Maps BitSight data to cybersecurity questions in a
        vendor assessment questionnaire, validating qualitative data collection,
        producing consumable reports, and reducing the number of questions
        needed in a vendor assessment.
    --  Company Relationship: Makes it easy for customers to apply the proper
        level of due diligence based on the relationship they have with that
        company (e.g., vendor, competitor, fourth-party).
    --  Portfolio Risk Matrix: Gives an organization a clearer picture of the
        state of its third-party portfolio's risk aligned to its organizational
        policy, with the ability to adjust vendor tiering and risk thresholds.

BitSight is hosting two virtual "Third-Party Risk Xperience" events introducing the new capabilities and featuring interactive discussions led by industry experts on how organizations can reduce risk and operate their third-party risk management programs more efficiently. Customers are invited to attend an exclusive customer-only event on June 2, 2020. Everyone is invited to attend an event on June 23, 2020, and can sign up by visiting: https://bitsig.ht/2TN8HAj.
