Today’s risks don’t stand still. Your visibility shouldn’t either.

Black Kite has transformed the legacy cyber ratings market with greater transparency and trust.  Most tools provide a risk score but lack deeper visibility into the specific factors driving that risk. Ratings are grounded in an open-standards methodology. Real-time threat exposure and threat actor intelligence are mapped directly to your vendor ecosystem, providing clear visibility into who’s exposed, to what, how best to resolve it with vendors.

Continuous monitoring and risk assessments aren’t competing approaches. They’re complementary.

Monitoring delivers real-time visibility into vendor cyber risk, providing an always-on view of exposures, active threats, and threat actor targeting. Assessments validate the controls, policies, and compliance measures vendors have in place. An effective TPCRM program requires both.
