The Shared Assessments Program was created for all organizations that are concerned about information controls to protect personally identifiable client or consumer data in outsourced relationships. Rsam and other members of the Shared Assessments Program work together to eliminate redundancies and create efficiencies, giving all parties a standardized, consistent, faster, more rigorous, more efficient and less costly means of conducting security, privacy and business continuity assessments.
As enterprise organizations increase their reliance on third party suppliers, vendor risk management is becoming a more critical element of successful IT and enterprise risk programs. Rsam enables organizations to implement a sustainable vendor risk program by automating the vendor assessment, collaboration and review process; tracking outstanding issues and remediation activities and generating actionable reports and dashboards for all levels of management throughout the entire enterprise.
To provide further value-add to customers, Rsam licenses the Shared Assessments Program content for Vendor Risk Assessments from BITS whereby customers can access the Shared Assessments controls within Rsam while taking advantage of Rsam’s feature-rich technology and methodology.
