Whistic
Whistic provides a vendor security platform built primarily around questionnaire-based third-party risk assessments. standards. Whistic has capabilities such as cybersecurity incident response, risk scoring, and vulnerability scanning, helping businesses with TPRM.
Its Trust Catalog aids in vendor discovery and risk scoring, but the offering remains dependent on manually filled questionnaires and standardized templates, which limit insight depth and automation.
