Questionnaires

Send security assessments to your vendors and collect their answers — no account required on their side.

Questionnaires let you assess how well your suppliers protect the data you share with them. You start from a template, send it to a vendor, and they respond through a secure link. Completed questionnaires are auto-scored so you get a quick read on each vendor's security posture.

The send, respond, review flow

1

Start from a template

Pick a questionnaire template — built-in vendor security assessments are included — and send it to a supplier.

2

The vendor is invited

They receive a branded email invitation with a secure link. No account is needed to respond.

3

They verify and answer

The vendor confirms their identity with a one-time passcode (OTP) sent to their email, then answers the questions and attaches supporting documents.

4

You review and score

See their answers and attached documents from the vendor's record. The response is auto-scored; review it and mark it complete.

Key concepts

  • Templates — reusable question sets, including ready-made vendor security assessments, so you don't build from scratch each time.
  • OTP verification — vendors prove who they are with a one-time passcode instead of creating a login, keeping the process light for them and secure for you.
  • Auto-scoring — completed questionnaires produce a posture score so you can compare vendors quickly.
No vendor account needed
Suppliers respond entirely through the secure link and email passcode — there's nothing for them to sign up for, which means faster replies.

Works with

  • Third Parties — every questionnaire is linked to a vendor record. See Third Parties.
  • Evidence — documents vendors attach become part of your assessment trail. See Evidence.
