ProcessUnity Third-Party Risk Management
Threat & Vulnerability Response
ProcessUnity Threat & Vulnerability Response is a turnkey solution used by security and third-party risk management teams to efficiently identify, assess, respond, and report on emerging threats and vulnerabilities that may be present in the organization’s extended third-party ecosystem.
Safeguard Your Third-Party Ecosystem from Emerging Threats
When new threats and vulnerabilities emerge, your Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) team needs to act…fast. Any interruption or breach in your service supply chain could have a lasting negative impact on your business. It’s a tough task, as many TPRM teams are underequipped to handle the:
- Exponential growth in the number of vulnerability alerts:
Which alerts are relevant to your organization? Who monitors them?
- Sheer volume of your third (and fourth) parties:
Which vendors could be prone to each threat?
- Workload required to assess the extended vendor ecosystem against each threat:
Do we have to assess every service provider?
- Post-incident reporting required by executive leadership:
How can we quickly summarize our actions and remedies?
A New Way to Manage Cyber Threats and Known Vulnerabilities
ProcessUnity Threat & Vulnerability Response is a turnkey solution used by security and third-party risk management teams to efficiently identify, assess, respond, and report on emerging threats and vulnerabilities that may be present in the organization’s extended third-party ecosystem. Designed to shorten your team’s response time from weeks or months to days, Threat & Vulnerability Response combines ProcessUnity’s powerful TPRM Platform with unmatched third-party risk data from our Global Risk Exchange to help your team:
- Monitor advisories for critical vulnerabilities relevant to you
- Prioritize which third parties should be assessed
- Scope, assess, and score potentially affected third parties
- Capture and distribute findings and recommendations
Continuous Threat Monitoring & Alerts
Access a searchable list of real-time vulnerabilities with metadata on the CVSS score, severity, attack vector, attack complexity, affected platforms, and more.
Assessment Prioritization
Set risk rules to continuously monitor your critical third parties against vulnerabilities that match your pre-set criteria and be alerted the moment a rule is breached.
Assessment Prioritization
Narrow your list of third parties to target in your emergency assessment campaign using filters for inherent risk, industry, framework score, intelligence rating, relevant risk alert, and alert severity.
Assessment Scoping & Scoring
Streamline your review of third-party responses to the emergency vulnerability questionnaire with configurable non-preferred responses and questionnaire scoring.
Threat & Vulnerability Response: Key Components
Continuous Threat Monitoring & Alerts
The ProcessUnity Threat Research team continuously monitors CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog and NIST’s National Vulnerability Database for published vulnerabilities. In conjunction, our team conducts ongoing threat intelligence research into the dark web, social media, and indicators of compromise to identify emerging threats relevant to your organization. If one or more of your third parties is susceptible to an emerging threat, an alert is issued with key details necessary for you to understand its nature.
Assessment Prioritization
When a threat is identified, ProcessUnity combines inherent risk assessments, Automated Risk Profiles, potential control deficiencies, and demographic and technographic data to deliver a narrowed list of third parties most likely to be susceptible to the threat. Instead of assessing your entire ecosystem, you focus on the vendors that matter most.
Assessment Scoping & Scoring
Potentially affected third and fourth parties receive targeted assessments via ProcessUnity’s powerful assessment engine and our flexible vendor portal. Assessment questions automatically incorporate threat metadata, such as the name of the affected application and NIST CVE ID, promoting a faster response. As your vendors complete their assessment, ProcessUnity automatically scores the results based on preferred responses that you determine. The platform automatically creates issues for remediation based on non-preferred responses.
One-Click Executive Reporting
Often, the anxiety and frustration of senior executives and the board during a critical crisis can be mollified with transparency. This is especially true during an active cyber threat. ProcessUnity Threat and Vulnerability Response provides summary reports to educate your leadership on assessment status. With the push of a button, you can generate a report demonstrating the effectiveness of your process, showcasing your leadership and your team’s efficiency during an active cyber threat crisis.
