Solution Name

Explanation

This question is asking for the name of the software solution, product, or service being assessed for security compliance. In the HECVAT (Higher Education Community Vendor Assessment Toolkit), this is a basic identification question that helps establish which specific offering is being evaluated. Why it's important: 1. It clearly identifies the scope of the assessment - which specific product or service is being evaluated 2. It helps differentiate between multiple offerings from the same vendor 3. It establishes a reference point for all subsequent questions in the assessment 4. It ensures all parties are aligned on exactly what is being assessed The answer should be straightforward - provide the official, marketed name of your solution. If your company offers multiple products or services, be specific about which one(s) this assessment covers. If the solution has different editions or deployment models (like cloud vs. on-premises), you may want to specify this as well if it affects the security posture.

General Information

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
