“We believe being recognized as a leader in the Third-Party Risk Management by Forrester is a testament to our unwavering commitment to empowering organizations not only to manage but to embrace and thrive on risk for business growth,” said Gaurav Kapoor, Co-CEO and Co-Founder, of MetricStream. “Third parties are extremely critical to scale business performance and innovation, but recent incidents involving third parties and increasing number of regulations will require organizations to reassess their current approach. Organizations are still relying on questionnaires, managing risks in siloes, and manually assessing third parties at pre-defined intervals. Our customers have realized significant value by hyper-automating their third-party risk management programs and integrating with broader risk, compliance programs with Connected GRC, aided by Cloud, Continuous, and Cognitive technologies.”
