Your vendors are
your biggest
risk blindspot.
Cyberator's TPRM module turns weeks-long vendor assessments into hours. Identify, score, and mitigate third-party risk across your entire ecosystem — inside your unified GRC program.
- Risk-scored vendor tiering with automated questionnaires
- SecurityScorecard integration for instant external risk signals
- Connected to your Risk Register, Compliance, and Dashboards
Third-party risk is exploding.
Your process isn't keeping up.
Most breaches trace back to a vendor. Yet most organizations still manage vendor risk with spreadsheets, email threads, and annual reviews that are outdated before the ink dries.
Assessments take weeks — or months
Manual questionnaires, follow-up chains, and scattered evidence make every vendor review a project in itself, draining your limited security resources.
No visibility into inherited risk
You don't know which vendors carry the most risk — or whether their control gaps are actually being addressed after you flag them.
Point-in-time reviews miss ongoing threats
Annual or ad hoc assessments leave months of blind spots. Vendor risk changes constantly and your process needs to keep pace.
Vendor risk lives in a silo
There's no link between a vendor's gaps and your internal controls, compliance requirements, or executive risk reporting. Everything is disconnected.
Auditors ask for vendor evidence — you scramble
SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, CMMC — every audit includes vendor risk requirements. When auditors ask, you're hunting through emails and old spreadsheets.
Limited budget, unlimited vendor list
Without risk-based tiering, critical vendors get the same attention as low-stakes tools — or less. Resources are spent in the wrong places.
From vendor list to risk-managed ecosystem — in four steps.
Use Cyberator to inventory and tier vendors, run automated assessments, track remediation, and continuously prove your program to auditors.
Inventory & Tier
Catalog all vendors and classify them by business criticality, data access, and inherent risk. Focus your resources where they matter most — not equally across everything.
Assess & Score
Send targeted, framework-aligned questionnaires. Collect evidence and automatically score each vendor. Everything tracked in one place — no spreadsheets, no email threads.
Mitigate & Track
Assign remediation plans directly to vendors or internal owners. Set milestones, escalation rules, and automatically track progress through resolution.
Report & Prove
Generate audit-ready evidence, executive dashboards, and board-level risk reports — all tied back to your master GRC program. One-click audit exports.
Part of Cyberator's unified GRC platform. TPRM doesn't live in isolation. Vendor risks automatically surface in your Risk Register, connect to your Compliance controls, and feed your executive Reporting dashboards — so nothing falls through the cracks across your 10-module program.
Everything your vendor risk program actually needs.
Intelligent Vendor Questionnaires
Pre-built and customizable questionnaires aligned to NIST CSF, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, CMMC, and more. Send, track, and score responses automatically.
- Framework-aligned question libraries
- Automated reminders and follow-ups
- Evidence collection and document locker
- Auto-scoring with configurable risk thresholds
Risk-Based Vendor Classification
Not every vendor deserves the same scrutiny. Tier vendors by criticality, data sensitivity, and inherent risk — then tailor assessment depth accordingly.
- Configurable tiering criteria and scoring models
- Inherent vs. residual risk comparison
- Critical, High, Medium, Low classifications
- Automated re-assessment scheduling by tier
Vendor Mitigation Workflows
Identified a gap? Assign a remediation plan directly to the vendor or an internal owner, set milestones, and automatically track progress through resolution.
- Plans tied to specific control gaps
- Owner assignment with due dates & escalations
- Real-time status tracking
- Closed-loop audit trail for every action
Board-Ready Risk Dashboards
Turn raw vendor data into executive insight. Dashboards show portfolio-level risk exposure, trends over time, and remediation progress — ready for your next board meeting or audit.
- Vendor risk heat maps and scorecards
- Compliance-mapped evidence exports
- KPI tracking across the vendor lifecycle
- Auditor-ready reports in one click
Always-on Visibility — Beyond the Annual Review
Point-in-time assessments are a starting point, not a finish line. Cyberator's continuous monitoring keeps your vendor risk posture current — not last year's snapshot. Track expiring attestations, monitor configurations, and receive alerts when vendor risk changes.
- Automated attestation expiry tracking
- Re-assessment trigger alerts
- Tenable & Qualys integration for technical risk signals
- Continuous control monitoring via endpoint agents
- Real-time risk posture visibility
- Evidence freshness indicators
Assess across all vendor risk dimensions.
Cyberator evaluates vendors against the domains that matter most to your regulators, auditors, and board.

External security signals, meet internal control maturity.
A true 360° view of vendor risk.
Cyberator now integrates with SecurityScorecard to deliver a fast, data-driven view of a vendor's external security posture — instantly combined with your internal assessments for the most complete picture of vendor risk available.
Cyberator ingests SecurityScorecard reports to deliver an instant, data-driven view of a vendor's external security posture — without waiting for a questionnaire response.
- Instant external risk score per vendor
- Identify risk areas fast — no questionnaire needed
- Surface network vulnerabilities, DNS health, patching gaps
- Prioritize remediation using objective external data
Cyberator's internal assessments evaluate a vendor's control maturity, policy adherence, and compliance posture — the depth that external scores alone can't provide.
- Framework-aligned control assessments (NIST, ISO, SOC 2…)
- Policy, process, and people risk evaluation
- Evidence collection and attestation workflows
- Connected to your Risk Register and compliance program
Faster Risk Identification
SecurityScorecard data surfaces vendor risk areas in minutes — before you even send a questionnaire. Triage your vendor portfolio instantly and focus outreach where it matters most.
Smarter Remediation Prioritization
When external scores flag a weakness, Cyberator lets you act on it immediately — assign a remediation plan, notify the vendor, and track resolution through closure in one workflow.
More Informed Risk Decisions
Stop relying on self-reported vendor answers alone. The combination of objective external data and rigorous internal assessments gives you the evidence to make confident, defensible risk decisions.
