▶ Watch: How Does the CyberVadis Assessment Work? | 5 Simple Steps
Your client is running a program to monitor the cybersecurity posture of their supplier network. As one of their key partners, likely because you handle sensitive data or support critical business processes, they have asked your company to complete a CyberVadis assessment.
This is increasingly common: large organizations are held accountable for the security practices of their vendors, not just their own internal systems. Your client uses CyberVadis to get an independent, evidence-based view of how their suppliers manage cybersecurity risk.
What CyberVadis does
CyberVadis is a third-party cybersecurity assessment platform. We evaluate your company's information security practices and produce a scorecard - a validated, shareable summary of your cybersecurity posture. Our methodology is built on internationally recognized standards including ISO 27001, NIST, GDPR, NIS2, and DORA.
The assessment is conducted remotely: you complete an online questionnaire and upload supporting evidence. Our team of security analysts reviews your responses and publishes a scorecard.
What you get out of it
The assessment is not only for your client's benefit. At the end of the process, you receive:
A detailed scorecard identifying your strengths and areas of risk
A personalized improvement plan with prioritized actions
The ability to share your results with any current or future business partner, so you complete the assessment once and reuse the results many times
A note on participation
If your company does not submit the questionnaire by the deadline, your client will be notified. If you need more time or have questions about the process, contact us at account.management@cybervadis.com.
