Questions
Vendor questions, answered.
Will this damage our relationship with our IT provider?
Usually the opposite. Clear expectations make a provider's job easier, and we work with them, not against them.
How many vendors should we be assessing?
All of them get listed. Only the ones with real access to your data or systems get a full review.
What if a provider will not supply the evidence we ask for?
That tells you something. We help you decide whether to push, add contract terms or replace them.
