Third Party Supplier Management with Panorays

A Third Party Supplier Management (TPSM) Program is a solution to oversee, assess, and provide ongoing management of vendors in one place. Most organizations don’t have the bandwidth, the breadth of knowledge, or the tools to perform one-time and continuous assessments on their suppliers. Yet, it’s increasingly important to ensure you’re covering all your bases, as data breaches attributed to third-party security are increasing. Vendors require vetting, expert staff, and consistent, ongoing monitoring.

HALOCK has partnered with Panorays to offer licensing, initiation, and operation of Panorays for your business. If an organization utilizes HALOCK’s Risk Management Program (RMP), hours can be deducted from the organization’s existing retainer, and Panorays will be implemented in conjunction with the RMP.

What is Panorays?

Panorays is an automated, scalable, fully regulatory compliant solution that serves as a centralized portal for assessing security posture, continuous monitoring, security questionnaires, security evidence storage, and remediation tracking. Third-party related incidents are on the rise, so visibility, and communicative and responsive relationships with suppliers is crucial to ensure they are effectively providing their services to your business.
