Case Study: Scantron achieves continuous supply chain cyber risk visibility with Black Kite

Scantron utilizes Black Kite to manage supply chain risk and understand vendor cyber posture

Scantron, a global technology and services company that provides managed IT support and assessment solutions, faced a major gap: no third‑party risk strategy while supporting thousands of vendors. To kickstart vendor risk management they turned to Black Kite’s cyber risk intelligence platform for continuous, automated monitoring, compliance correlation, financial risk estimates and ransomware insights.

Black Kite delivered a standards‑based, 360° view of Scantron’s supply‑chain risk—using capabilities like the Ransomware Susceptibility Index™, OpenFAIR™ quantitative risk, Unique Parser™ compliance automation and FocusTags™ for high‑profile incidents. The result: faster, data‑driven vendor decisions, secured customer renewals, smoother cyber insurance applications and even weeks of time saved during the Log4j response—demonstrating Black Kite’s measurable impact on Scantron’s third‑party risk posture.
