Software Supplier Discovery
Knowledge of every vendor that supplies you with software
Identify blacklisted vendors
When regulatory initiatives or internal mandates disallow the use of technology from specific vendors, it can be a challenge to determine if your company even uses their software.
Forbidden code can be buried deep within components in products and equipment, requiring immense effort to investigate. FACT can streamline the process, allowing you to:
- Respond to corporate policies governing country of origin concerns
- Identify blacklisted vendors that are supplying 3rd-party or 4th-party components
- Determine which products and product lines are using a specific vendor's components
Monitor vendor reputations
Whether you are an asset owner or a vendor, it is important to know that your suppliers consistently deliver secure software.
When they don't, you need intelligence to properly assess their track record. FACT can help you:
- See when trust scores on software or components from a specific supplier fall below your organization’s policy threshold
- Prioritize which vendors need additional management attention
- Make informed purchasing decisions based on the trustworthiness of a vendor's software
