Case Study: Farm Credit Mid‑America achieves continuous third‑party risk monitoring and improved vendor visibility with SecurityScorecard

Farm Credit Mid-America Taking Control of Third-Party Risk with SecurityScorecard

Farm Credit Mid-America, one of the largest agricultural lending cooperatives in the U.S. (more than 1,100 employees and 100,000+ customers), faced increasing regulatory pressure from the FCA and FFIEC-style guidance to manage third‑party cyber risk. Their manual, point‑in‑time vendor questionnaires left them buried in spreadsheets, produced incomplete data, and consumed senior security engineers’ time. To address this, Farm Credit Mid‑America turned to SecurityScorecard and its continuous outside‑in security rating platform.

SecurityScorecard implemented continuous monitoring, an outside‑in view of Farm Credit’s attack surface, vendor comparison tools, real‑time alerts, and automated reporting and auditing. As a result, SecurityScorecard enabled Farm Credit Mid‑America to eliminate time‑consuming paper assessments, instantly vet and benchmark every service provider, accelerate onboarding, free up security team capacity, and continuously demonstrate compliance to leadership and regulators.
