Protect Your Company from Threats Coming from Those You Trust
35% of data breaches start with suppliers and partners. Manage third-party risks with continuous visibility, active collaboration, and effective remediation - transforming your partner ecosystem into competitive advantage, not vulnerability.
The Invisible Problem
You invest millions in security to protect your company, but there's one door that remains wide open: your suppliers. Companies manage an average of 7,700 third parties in their value chain - IT vendors, payment processors, SaaS platforms, business partners, professional service providers. Each represents potential entry point for digital criminals.
The frightening reality: 35% of data breaches originate from vendors, according to analysis of 1,000 largest recent breaches. Worse still, 87% of CISOs were affected by significant cyber incidents originating from third parties in last 12 months alone. Some companies saw percentage of incidents involving third parties grow 550% in three years.
The challenge: While your security teams work tirelessly to protect internal networks and systems, criminals find easier paths - they invade vendors with weak security and use that trust to penetrate your company. A single compromised vendor can expose data of millions of customers, paralyze critical operations, and destroy reputation built over decades.
Why Traditional Methods Fail
Questionnaires and Certifications Are Not Enough
For years, companies trusted structured frameworks, ISO certifications, and standardized questionnaires to manage third-party risks. The problem: vendors with impeccable documentation, exemplary processes, and structured governance sometimes are attacked because they haven't applied critical patches in months.
Documented Maturity ≠ Real Effectiveness
A vendor can ace questionnaires and have all certifications, but the model of sending forms and approving responses doesn't capture operational reality of implemented controls nor identify critical vulnerabilities that emerge daily. It's like trusting old medical certificates instead of doing current exams.
Point-in-Time Assessments in Dynamic World
Annual or semi-annual audits generate instant snapshot that quickly becomes obsolete. A critical vulnerability discovered tomorrow won't be detected until next assessment - leaving months-long window for exploitation.
Lack of Continuous Visibility
You don't know when vendor suffers attack, when new vulnerabilities emerge, or when critical configurations are incorrectly changed. You only discover when it's already negative headline.
What Is the Platform
Our platform transforms third-party risk management from reactive bureaucratic process to proactive and collaborative strategy that actually reduces exposure. Instead of just measuring, accepting, and transferring risks through compliance requirements, we offer complete approach that encompasses active remediation and mitigation.
We base our solution on mutually beneficial relationship for entire ecosystem: first parties (your company) and third parties (vendors) work together to collaboratively reduce vulnerabilities, not confrontationally. We treat third parties as what they really are: critical infrastructures for organizations.

How the Platform Works
1. Complete Ecosystem Mapping
We identify and catalog all third parties in your value chain: IT and professional service vendors, mission-critical SaaS platforms, payment processors and APIs, commercial partners and affiliates, data processing organizations, investments and subsidiaries. We classify by criticality crossing business impact (how much affects revenue and operations) with technical exposure (access to data, systems, and networks).
2. Multidimensional Risk Assessment
Our assessment integrates three critical perspectives: Cybersecurity Team detects flaws in vendor's security program through deep technical analysis. Legal Team determines legal, contractual, and regulatory risk associated. Business Team predicts negative impact on operations and revenue if data or systems are compromised.
3. Deep View of External Security Posture
We integrate our solution directly with partners presenting real and updated risk data. We collect information based on relevance, directly from source - not on assumptions, self-assessments, and isolated evidence. We analyze external attack surface identifying public exposures, unpatched vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and real-time risks.
4. Continuous Non-Intrusive Monitoring
24/7/365 surveillance of all critical third parties detecting new vulnerabilities, configuration changes, and emerging exposures. Non-intrusive access through APIs and secure connectors that don't introduce additional risks to vendors. Immediate alerts when critical risks are identified, allowing rapid response before exploitation.
5. Proactive Collaboration with Vendors
Instead of adversarial audits, third parties consent to receive help - mutually beneficial relationship. Shared dashboard offers mutual visibility where vendors see exactly which vulnerabilities they need to fix and why. Open communication line maintains friendly approach focused on continuous improvement, not punishment.
6. Accountability with Objective Metrics
We obtain metrics on partner correction timeliness and security discipline - not just static posture. We identify which vendors have most frequent deviations, problem recurrences, and systemic difficulties. Executive reports show evolution over time, allowing informed decisions about contract renewals.
7. Direct Investment in Critical Vendors
For essential partners with low maturity, we facilitate shared investment in security - from expert consulting to resources for implementing specific controls. The economic logic: if vendor is essential but lacks resources, investing in improvement protects both parties and costs less than replacement.
8. Complete Lifecycle Management
Protection doesn't end after contract signature - continuous monitoring ensures accountability throughout relationship. We track from pre-contractual due diligence to secure offboarding when partnership ends.
Tangible Business Benefits
Costly Incident Prevention
Avoid vendor-originated data breaches costing millions in recovery, fines (LGPD), lawsuits, and customer loss. 41% of ransomware attacks start with compromised third-party credentials - identifying these exposures before exploitation saves your company.
Direct Revenue Protection
For companies with distributed operations, points of sale, or complex supply chains, each compromised vendor represents literal revenue loss - not just compliance matter, but direct impact on financial results. Minimize operational disruptions caused by unavailability of critical third-party services.
Proven Vulnerability Reduction
Clients report 81% reduction in third-party vulnerabilities in first month through shared visibility and active collaboration. Transform vendors from weak points to security-aware partners.
Replacement Savings
Investing in improving critical vendors costs less than replacing them - maintains institutional knowledge, avoids service disruptions, and preserves valuable relationships.
Facilitated Regulatory Compliance
Meet LGPD, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and other certification requirements demanding documented third-party risk management. Generate continuous evidence for audits showing active monitoring and vulnerability remediation.
Clear Executive Visibility
Practical dashboards facilitate tracking enabling identification of gaps with each inclusion or change in resources. Objective metrics about vendor security discipline inform contract renewal decisions.
Shared Responsibility
Create culture where vendors assume proactive responsibility for security instead of just answering questionnaires. Continuous training and awareness raise protection level of entire ecosystem.
