Aravo Solutions announces Aravo for Information Security

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Aravo Solutions, a leading provider of SaaS solutions for third-party risk and performance management, today announced the release of Aravo for Information Security. This pre-configured application for mitigating privacy, cyber security, and other risks in third-party ecosystems accelerates the deployment of a best-practice information security program.

"Organizations have been using Aravo to manage information security risk as part of their third-party risk management program for some time," notes Aravo CTO Eric Hensley. "Aravo for Information Security distills that experience, reducing the need for internal resources and time-to-market with pre-configured capabilities specific to best-practice infosec programs, including leveraging the industry-standard SIG Core and Lite assessments."

Aravo for Information Security offers a simple solution for the CISO and IT security team based on the Shared Assessments SIG. A nice feature for third parties that already have a completed SIG is that they can just upload it to the Aravo IS questionnaire and it will automatically populate.

Post this

Built on best practices from the Shared Assessments community, the SIG (Standard Information Gathering) assessment is used to collect data to determine how third-party service providers manage security risks across 18 risk control domains in their environments. With Aravo for Information Security, organizations can have granular control of the risk control domains and even specific questions in the SIG Lite or Core that they send to service providers – or they can use a custom combination of questions from both – with just simple configuration changes.

"We commend Aravo for joining the Shared Assessments community and leveraging the collective intelligence of hundreds of members through adoption of the SIG in their platform. They are bringing third-party risk best practices and standardization to their customers through this product integration," said Catherine A. Allen, CEO, The Santa Fe Group.

Said French Caldwell, Founder and Chief of Research at FCInsight, "Aravo for Information Security offers a simple solution for the CISO and IT security team based on the Shared Assessments SIG. A nice feature for third parties that already have a completed SIG is that they can just upload it to the Aravo IS questionnaire and it will automatically populate -- so no mind-numbing clicking on yes and no questions."

According to Forrester Research, third parties were the cause of 21% of confirmed breaches in 2018, up from 17% in 2017.* A single cyber security breach can cost millions of dollars in fines, reputational damage, and shareholder value.

Aravo for Information Security can scale to include complex scoping and conditional logic as well as infosec-specific automated workflows, reports, and dashboards. It can be used independently to focus specifically on cyber risk or as part of a broader Aravo third-party risk management solution that spans multiple risk domains, allowing organizations to quickly view portfolio risk scorecards for both specific risk domains like infosec and overall inherent risk.
