WEB MANAGER
BUSINESS PROBLEM
Organizations are increasingly concerned about the information security risks vendors pose to their enterprises, leading many to mandate vendor risk assessments for all third-party vendors. Scalesology's client, the web manager for a $10 billion company’s product line, faced this requirement despite a long-standing relationship with the company. Completing a vendor risk assessment became essential to continue their collaboration.
SCALESOLOGY IN ACTION
The Web Manager engaged Scalesology to help navigate the significant security requirements set by their client. Beyond simply responding to the request, the Web Manager aimed to ensure alignment with industry best practices. The primary risk for their system was the potential for compromise, which could lead to unauthorized access to the client’s website. Scalesology collaborated with the Web Manager to verify that their computing environment adhered to best practices and that appropriate procedures were in place. Additionally, Scalesology tackled the vendor risk assessment questionnaire, ensuring that all relevant information about security measures and onboarding procedures was thoroughly documented to meet the client’s compliance requirements.
RESULT
The Web Manager was able to respond to her client’s vendor risk assessment in a timely manner and provide them with the assurance they needed to retain their services.
