What will the partnership address?
Our partnership pulls thousands of ISS Cyber Risk Scores in the OneTrust Third-Party Risk Exchange and enables organizations to understand the cyber risk posture of their vendors, empowering teams to prioritize risky vendors based on their cyber risk score.
Organizations using the Third-Party Risk Exchange get added value by being able to view their vendors’ ISS Cyber Risk Scores out-of-the-box (for free), which provides insight into vendor risk and allows for ongoing vendor monitoring throughout the third-party relationship lifecycle.
