“We handle vast amounts of sensitive personal and patient data, including prescription records. If a vendor’s security posture is weak, it could expose us to regulatory risk and reputational damage. We needed a solution that would streamline risk assessments and ensure compliance without slowing the business down.”

"One thing that's been really impressive has been the continuous little tweaks and new features that the development team has been doing. Those things keep the solution fresh and I find the new features are really, really useful."

"We can monitor and view any vulnerabilities easily using the UpGuard dashboard, allowing us complete visibility into our security."

“You see relevant information about a vendor in one place, including their location, security score.”

"We’re not just asking our vendors security questions. We’re also performing scans to confirm there are no security concerns. This helps us automate the security questionnaire process."

"Upguard has helped us de-risk our organisation, with solutions that are both reliable and accurate in producing fact-based information about our key suppliers, that we can proactively act on in order to help keep our platforms secure and stable."

"Before UpGuard, conducting proper research for each vendor would eat up a lot of time – Does it comply with our requirements? Where is their data located? Do they have privacy policies."

“UpGuard’s Cyber Risk scoring helps us understand which of our vendors are most likely to breach so we can take action now, before something happens."

"Having a system like UpGuard helps us sleep at night because we always know if we’ve overlooked any vulnerabilities."

"The UpGuard platform automatically identifies pockets of our exposure to 4th party vendor risk. When a major outage is announced, we know in a matter of minutes how this could affect our vendors’ ability to serve us and, in turn, our ability to serve our clients."

“UpGuard’s real-time security scoring system is beneficial. I get immediate feedback after releasing new functionality or responding to a highlighted risk. Seeing your security score go up is gratifying, almost like winning in a video game. Hence, it provides a psychological incentive to take care of the otherwise mundane task.”

“The biggest factor for us was time, We needed a tool that wouldn’t take more time to manage than the value it provided. UpGuard was by far the most efficient and user-friendly.”

“We’re stewards of public funds, When we choose a vendor, we need to justify that decision. Now, if anyone questions why we selected a particular provider, we can point to an independent, third-party assessment. That transparency is crucial.”

"We now have an automated, robust process for validating that planned changes are made correctly. That reduces regulatory and operational risk, lowers costs, and allows us to drive continuous improvement."

"We can now get comprehensive vulnerability reports, tied directly to specific CIs. Because of this, we’ll also be able to drive end-to-end remediation processes within ServiceNow, and tie this directly back into other areas such as GRC.”
