Case Study: Cleveland Clinic streamlines vendor risk management with SecurityScorecard

Cleveland Clinic cuts vendor risk assessment time with SecurityScorecard

Cleveland Clinic, a multi-specialty academic medical center, faced the challenge of managing IT and cyber risks across its large enterprise and complex vendor ecosystem. The organization needed a streamlined, data-driven way to assess, risk-stratify, and continuously monitor third parties to make informed, risk-based decisions. To meet this challenge, they partnered with SecurityScorecard and utilized its security ratings platform.

SecurityScorecard provided a solution that was integrated into four key areas: RFx processes, new vendor onboarding, continuous monitoring of high-risk vendors, and self-monitoring. The platform’s seamless integration with Cleveland Clinic's new ServiceNow Vendor Risk Management module created a one-stop shop for third-party risk, significantly reducing assessment time. As a result, SecurityScorecard helped streamline the vendor risk management process, enabling teams outside of cybersecurity to access risk data and improving the organization's overall cyber insurance posture.
