“The UpGuard user experience was much nicer than other platforms and easier to use, while other platforms felt more outdated and not as friendly.”

“We have set up notifications with UpGuard, such that if a vendor drops by 5 points, we reach out to the vendor in order to fix those security issues. These are usually issues such as SSL certificates expiring or DNS issues.”

“In terms of pure security improvement across our company, we now complete hundreds of maintenance tickets, which is a massive advancement we couldn’t have achieved without UpGuard. We previously wouldn’t have detected at least 10% of those tickets, so UpGuard has enabled us to work faster by detecting issues quickly …

"We did a group diff with UpGuard and quickly discovered that one of our web servers had a different configuration from the other six supporting the application. We restored that server’s configuration and things were back to normal. We couldn’t have done that without UpGuard.”

"Our complicated environment requires attention to detail when reviewing security risks. We have many cloud-first vendors so the UpGuard platform allows us to be granular and gives us an interesting layered insight on our supply chain that could have a critical impact on our operation. As a telecommunications company providing …

"UpGuard provides me an overview of the security across all the schools and helps me fix these security issues."

"Thanks to UpGuard’s custom questionnaire builder, the custom questionnaire we have created will significantly speed up our vendor assessment process. Many assessments will be reviewed and approved in only half an hour."

"Open-Xchange uses a vulnerability scanner across the organization’s internal and external attack surfaces. While the scanner provides in-depth coverage, it doesn’t have asset discovery capabilities. It can only monitor what we know. It doesn’t have a perfect register of where every IT asset is, especially as we use dozens of …

“We used UpGuard because it was an easily-delegated, easily-deployed product which did what we needed it to do."

"Our vendor security risk assessments are now a well-oiled machine from where we started using UpGuard."

"Having an automated way to look at the attack surface is a great way to flag things like unmanned pages or EOL apps. It’s a low-hanging fruit to improve our security."

"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.”

"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.”
