Tier the vendor
Begin with inherent risk and service criticality and confirm the systems, people and evidence needed to answer the client’s specific questions.
Collect the evidence
Review security, privacy, resilience and subcontractors. Then evaluate questionnaire responses and supporting evidence to determine whether the relevant controls operate as intended.
Challenge the claims
Assess findings, exceptions and compensating controls and connect the result to credible security, operational and business impact.
Decide and track
Provide risk-tiered assessment through the Elteni Platform and expert analysis of evidence, not only questionnaire scoring, then align responsible parties around the next actions.
Move from activity to clarity.
