Digital questionnaires for Third-Party Risk Management
Done with the hassle of using email and excel to conduct supplier risk assessments. Our third-party risk management (TPRM) platform uses digital questionnaires. This makes risk assessments a simple, smooth and collaborative experience for both clients and suppliers. Digital questionnaires can be chosen from our extensive library or can be built from scratch.
No more endless back and forth, Ceeyu's risk management platform checks that all response requirements (e.g. clarifications, uploads of supporting documents) are met before they can be submitted by the questioned party. After checking, assessment scores are automatically calculated. A Kanban board provides a clear overview of the status of ongoing assessments with various vendors.

Today, most supply chain risk assessments are conducted using Excel. While Excel is a powerful tool for calculations and data analysis, it is not suitable for collecting answers to questions in performing risk assessments. It lacks "must have" features offered by Ceeyu's digital, question-based assessment service, such as :
…and much more. The convenience of our digital assessments makes risk management a breeze compared to working with email and Excel, both for clients and suppliers.
Manually gathering information and tracking risk assessments yourself is very time-consuming and often leads to inconsistencies and errors. Ceeyu helps you efficiently manage risk in your supply chain and regulatory compliance with a third-party risk management (TPRM) platform that centralizes automated security scan data, answers to digital questionnaires and relevant documents (certificates, audit reports, pen tests) for all your partners and suppliers in one online tool.
Access to the platform for suppliers and partners is fast and free so you can quickly assess the risk they pose to your security and business continuity. Automated and continuous scans of their attack surface provide valuable additional information.

Digital TPRM platform

Periodic assessments
Objective security scan data
Using our automated attack surface monitoring and security risk ratings, you can cross-check the conclusions from the questionnaires. Or the other way around, using our questionnaire-based assessments, you can complement the output of automated scans. Ceeyu enables you to use the results from the attack surface scans and the resulting security risks at your own discretion: you can share the results with the supplier making them available on the supplier portal, or use them internally.
Manually reviewing and maintaining the security procedures of suppliers and other stakeholders can be a challenging task.
Those who have already worked with compliance questionnaires recognize the weaknesses of a manual approach. You have to create your questionnaires, send them to third parties by mail, and keep track in a spreadsheet of who has already answered and who has not. In addition, you must also keep all documents in a well-organized and shared folder, and check regularly whether adjustments are needed.
Using a centralized online platform, you can keep track of all your security assessment questionnaires with as little manual work as possible on security assessments.

Interact with suppliers
Our digital approach takes the overhead out of any vendor security due diligence process by allowing you to easily and quickly set up a new questionnaire-based assessment, link it to a supplier, and send it to them. The supplier will receive a login to access the supplier portal and be able to respond to the questionnaire online. After which you can assess their answers and generate a security rating.
When assessing a questionnaire, you have an easy-to-use interface to not only see the supplier’s responses and either accept or reject their answer, but also view appended evidence or send and receive messages through a Q&A messaging system.
Rejecting an answer will query the supplier to provide more information, while the message box might be used to query the supplier to ask for additional clarifications.
