After delivering game-changing(
) Supply Chain Risk Management capabilities to the Department of Defense (DoD)
in support of their COVID-19 response efforts, Exiger and SecurityScorecard
formalized this innovative partnership to tackle emerging vendor and supply
chain ecosystem challenges. Crystalized by the pervasive shock of the
SolarWinds breach, the U.S. Federal Government and its industry partners are
addressing far-reaching transparency and resiliency challenges in our existing
supply chains. These proactive and important steps, as detailed in the new
Executive Order on America's Supply Chains(
), will have a global and sweeping impact on every industry; the partnership
between Exiger and SecurityScorecard is designed to help companies and the U.S.
Federal Government manage this rapid change.
"Our clients have realized that their operational risks don't stop at their
doorstep. Just like their people, their technology and their processes, their
vendors are integral to their ability to deliver uncompromised products and
services. And, in response, our clients are taking the necessary steps to build
redundancy and risk management into their vendor ecosystem," said Brandon
Daniels(
), President of Global Markets at Exiger. "The combination of SecurityScorecard
and DDIQ allows the CTO, CISO, CCO, CFO, GC, and COO to do that quickly,
comprehensively, and cost-effectively."
SecurityScorecard's best-in-class cyber ratings will be integrated into
Exiger's DDIQ platform, which takes SecurityScorecard's ratings, threat, and
geographic data and combines it with other financial, operational, and
compliance risk feeds to create a comprehensive risk assessment on every
third-party and each tier of a supply chain. Exiger's AI-powered platform is
designed to drive transformational change in how entities are vetted at an
unprecedented scale. The platform is purpose-built to enable the Federal
Government and industry to safeguard the global supply chain at the speed of
relevance. Exiger's platform has scaled to conduct due diligence on tens of
millions of entities across the world's largest financial institutions,
corporates, and government agencies; including over 90 companies in the Fortune
250.
SecurityScorecard will deliver cybersecurity vulnerability monitoring, ratings
and remediation guidance to help DoD suppliers understand potential cyber
threats from their third-party vendors while prioritizing threat indicators.
Having scored more than 1.6 million companies globally, SecurityScorecard
focuses on providing a single view of cyber risk that includes self-assessment
and comprehensive vendor ecosystem risk management. SecurityScorecard takes an
outside-in view of a company's security posture by seeing what a hacker sees.
The company's technology uses non-intrusive proprietary data collection
methods, as well as trusted commercial and open-source threat feeds to
continuously monitor 10 risk factor groups and instantly deliver an
easy-to-understand A-F rating.
"The partnership between SecurityScorecard and Exiger serves an increasingly
important need in the cybersecurity market for the industry's expanding
demand," said Bill Hogan, Chief Revenue Officer for SecurityScorecard. "This
combined capability gives the cyber market the ability to have a holistic
analysis to immediately identify and prioritize high-risk third parties for
assessment and remediation. This leads to an overall more secure risk
environment."
Exiger and SecurityScorecard will be conducting a joint webinar on April 8th
titled "Combating Cyber Risk in Your Supply Chain: Responding to the Federal
Government's Push to Create a Resilient Industrial Base." More information and
registration is available online(
