ProcessUnity Global Risk Exchange
Streamline the Third-Party Lifecycle with Risk Data Intelligence
Significantly improve clarity and speed during onboarding, due diligence, and continuous monitoring via access to the world’s largest and most sophisticated controls-based third-party dataset.
Turn TPRM Data Challenges into Opportunities
Managing an effective Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) program is a significant challenge for any organization. As your network of third-party vendors expands, so do the complexities of assessing and mitigating their risks. Common challenges include:
- Growing volumes of third parties to assess and monitor
- Limited internal resources to handle increasing reviews
- Difficulty maintaining visibility into evolving risks
- Inconsistent or incomplete data from third parties
- Conflicting internal (vendor self-attested) signals with external (ratings providers, perimeter scanning)
Instead of being bogged down by manual assessments and fragmented data, empower your team with proprietary controls-based intelligence from ProcessUnity’s Global Risk Exchange.

Frequently Asked Questions
A third-party risk assessment is the process of evaluating a third party’s potential risk to the business across areas such as cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and operational practices to ensure they align with your organization’s standards.
The five phases of third-party risk management are:
- Planning and Scoping – Identify critical third parties and define risk management goals.
- Due Diligence and Selection – Assess third-party risk before onboarding.
- Contract Negotiation – Set clear expectations for compliance, security, and performance.
- Ongoing Monitoring – Continuously assess third-party risk and performance.
- Termination and Transition – Manage offboarding with plans for continuity and compliance.
A third-party risk assessment exchange contains validated risk assessments, completed questionnaires, vendor risk profiles, and supporting documentation. It provides fast, reliable access to third-party risk data, even for hard-to-reach third parties, and accelerates risk decision-making.
Monitoring third-party risk involves continuous assessments, integration of external risk data, real-time alerts, and regular third-party performance reviews to identify and address emerging threats proactively.
Here’s how to perform a third-party risk assessment:
- Define the scope and objectives of your assessment based on the third party’s inherent risk levels.
- Gather third-party information through tailored questionnaires.
- Leverage a third-party risk assessment library to systematically evaluate and verify specific risk areas.
- Analyze assessment results to identify potential vulnerabilities.
- Develop targeted remediation plans to address identified risks.
- Document the process for future reference and compliance purposes.
