GV.SC-01.067

Has your organization developed a formal cybersecurity supply chain risk management program with documented policies, procedures, and an implementation plan with milestones that is shared with relevant stakeholders?

Explanation

A cybersecurity supply chain risk management program helps identify, assess, and mitigate risks from third-party vendors, suppliers, and service providers that may have access to your systems or data. This program should include formal policies defining roles and responsibilities, procedures for vendor assessment and monitoring, and a roadmap for continuous improvement with clear milestones. Evidence could include: a formal supply chain risk management policy document, implementation roadmap with milestones, vendor assessment procedures, stakeholder communication plan, and documentation showing the program has been shared with relevant internal and external stakeholders.

Implementation Example

Develop the cybersecurity supply chain risk management program, including a plan (with milestones), policies, and procedures that guide implementation and improvement of the program, and share the policies and procedures with the organizational stakeholders

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.
