Security questionnaire automation streamlines your sales process

Our Due Diligence as a Service shortens your sales cycles by reducing response times to security and compliance questionnaires to 1-3 days, rather than 1-3 weeks.

What is Due Diligence as a Service?

Due Diligence as a Service uses security questionnaire automation to provides you with a structured and scalable approach to managing third-party security and compliance requests. As regulatory expectations increase and vendor scrutiny intensifies, responding to due diligence questionnaires quickly and accurately directly impacts your top line.

Our service removes the operational strain of managing repetitive, time-consuming requests by combining security expertise, structured workflows, and secure automation.

Our security analysts act as an extension of your team, ensuring security questionnaire automation responses are consistent, evidence-backed, and aligned with your security posture, while significantly reducing turnaround times. By leveraging secure, on-premise AI technology and expert quality assurance, we help you respond to due diligence requests that scales as you grow.


Also Known As

Security Questionnaire Automation (or “Due diligence as a service”) is also referred to as third party risk management (TPRM), vendor risk management, or DDQ management. These terms describe the same need: efficiently responding to security compliance questionnaires and due diligence requests from customers, partners and regulators.
