Automated cyber risk results so you can make better business decisions.

AUTOMATED CONTINUOUS MONITORING

What is Black Kite?

Black Kite’s Third Party Risk Assessments allow you to quantify and maintain visibility of your cyber risk exposure.

THIRD-PARTY RISK MANAGEMENT

You demand solutions that span the entirety of the third party risk management life cycle, from the every early identification and vetting of vendors, through contracting, into onboarding and operations, management and monitoring, to full visibility. We do just that.

BETTER BUSINESS
DECISIONS

Corporate boards are under pressure to provide better visibility and oversight into their enterprises’ exposure to third-party risks and third-party performance. On average, more than 60% of an enterprise’s IT budget is spent on products and external services. We make your future confident.

DIMENSIONS OF VALUE

TPRM offerings are climbing the Innovation Trigger and face many challenges ahead.  Few vendors support a cross-functional view of risk terrains, only equipped to serve a single functional leader. Black Kite supports the risk management process end-to-end from a technical, financial, and compliance perspective.

An Invaluable Piece to Your Risk Operations

We know it’s difficult to find the right solution. So many products, so much techno-babble and so many features.
We thought we’d tell you about what makes Black Kite different from the rest.

THIRD-PARTY RISK @ SCALE

Black Kite identifies your cyber risk by using three dimensions - technical, financial, and compliance. The platform uses open-source intelligence and non-intrusive scans to assess your cyber risk without ever touching the target customer.

SEEK TO UNDERSTAND

We try to make it as easy as possible to communicate problems to the people who need to know about them. Boards and CEO's are liable. Black Kite's platform identifies risk areas that REQUIRE attention, and provides easy-to-understand feedback to address them.

VISIBILITY

One platform with every vendor, supplier, and third party in your ecosystem. "Easy to use", "Unparalleled level of detail", and "features that reduce friction and add value" are just a few of the ways our customers describe the look and feel of the Black platform.

“THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND ACCURATE TECHNICAL INTELLIGENCE”

The Black Kite Technical Report provides letter grades and defensible data details behind 20 risk categories. The non-intrusive report does not touch an organization’s systems or network assets, passively evaluating third-party vendors and cyber insurance subscribers.
 Black Kite follows and applies commonly-used frameworks developed by the MITRE Corporation for scoring software weaknesses in a consistent, flexible, and transparent manner while converting highly technical terms into business language for executives.
