Chasing third-party vendors for open Corrective Action Plan (CAP) evidence and reviewing BitSight or SecurityScorecard rating drop alerts.

Scope of Work
Exact Tasks Third Party Risk Consultants Can Offload Starting Next Week
Keep your focus purely on high-level risk appetite alignment, board reporting, remediation advisory, and client roadmaps while your assistant manages the assessment engine.
Vendor Intake, Tiering & Scoping
Reviewing new vendor requests from internal stakeholders. Evaluating inherent risk levels based on data classification (PII, PHI, financial records) and network access, categorizing vendors into Tier 1 (Critical) through Tier 4 (Low), and triggering the appropriate assessment depth.
Security Questionnaire Distribution & Triage
Dispatching SIG Core/Lite or CAIQ questionnaires via OneTrust, ProcessUnity, or Whistic. Reviewing inbound vendor responses for completeness, identifying defaulted or unverified answers, and pre-scoring control gaps before senior consultant review.
SOC 2, ISO & Compliance Artifact Auditing
Auditing uploaded compliance documentation: checking SOC 2 Type II audit report dates, verifying whether subservice organizations are covered, confirming bridge letters for gap periods, validating ISO 27001 scope certificates, and logging annual penetration test attestations.
Cyber Rating Alerts & Posture Monitoring
Monitoring BitSight, SecurityScorecard, or UpGuard consoles for score fluctuations, critical SSL/TLS expirations, open ports, or dark web credential leaks. Logging incident alerts and notifying senior consultants of notable posture degradation.
Corrective Action Plan (CAP) Tracking
Logging identified vendor security deficiencies into risk registers or Jira boards. Setting remediation due dates, sending automated follow-up emails to vendor security teams, requesting updated evidence, and confirming when remediation items are resolved.
Annual Re-Assessment Scheduling & Reporting
Maintaining a single source of truth for all enterprise third parties. Tracking annual re-assessment trigger dates based on vendor tiering, preparing audit status spreadsheets, and formatting executive summary decks for client risk committees.
