The most user friendly and adaptable platform we could think of for internal processes as well as for broad technology and vendor risk. Initiation, response, evaluation, remediation planning and recertification are all made as close as to easy and fun tasks as feasible for vendors and admins. The Privva team has responded quickly to requests for enhancements to change the solution in accordance with our needs and vendor landscape.
