I can quickly and easily lookup companies I wish to review for third-party due diligence. I can easily change the license level to get full access for review, then adjust to a lower level for monitoring lower risk companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitsight solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to look at our third-parties for an objective view of what they are telling me about themselves and thier security stances. I am also able to look at our own company to see where our vulnerability lay and highlight those concerns to the right teams in our IT department. We have been able to make significant improvments thanks to Bitsight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Bitsight?

I really like that BitSight is a time saver in consolidating information. The ability to share reports with the 3rd parties you're assessing is key to allow them additional prioritization in their remediation efforts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bitsight?

I wish BitSight would identify if a company had a SOC2, is PCI certified, has ISO 27001 certification, etc. These would go a long way in establishing bonafides in the ratings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Bitsight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bitsight experts gather the security posture of a 3rd party, package it nicely, and allows us to effectively determine if we want to do business with this vendor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
