Black Kite Third Party Risk Intelligence Platform Likes & Dislikes
1. Straightforward results that are understandable to non-technical employees. 2. Very quick turnaround. By using public resources we are able to complete scans in minutes. 3. Quick responses to found vulnerabilities. It's remarkably easy to report and remove false positives from our own scans or scans for our vendors.
Blackkite UI is better than other competitors we tested and it provides infrastructure vulnerability checks as well as application security checks which is what we are looking for overall security of the organization.
The quick responses that I receive. The rep is clearly has ability to recognize urgent issues and handles them until resolved.
1. High tendency for false positives. The scans tend to focus on outdated systems that may be left behind on company servers (EOL software that hasn't been fully removed, legacy code, etc). 2. Sorting difficulty. I sometimes struggle to group vendors by who manages them, what department they interact with, etc. We can create custom tags, but being able to set up groups or separate tabs would be preferred. 3. Lack of vulnerability information. While most vulnerabilities listed are easy enough to understand, it would be nice if some level of remediation instruction could be provided.
Often times the vulnerabilities posted are incorrect or outdated. Moreover, it lacks a detailed explanation for vulnerability resolution.
Sometimes I have to sign back in - not timing out just asks me to sign in again.

BlackKite's Security Features: A Closer Look
BlackKite does provide security vulnerabilities for infrastructure and applications but often times they have been incorrect and the resolution for the vulnerabilities also lacks details. I was expecting more details on how to resolve vulnerabilities instead of just the vulnerability code. - DIRECTOR OF INFORMATION SECURITY10B+ USDManufacturingReview Source
Black Kite - Bringing more transparency to TPRM
