Case Study: James Hardie achieves 15-minute vendor onboarding with VISO TRUST

James Hardie cuts vendor onboarding to 10–15 minutes with VISO Trust

James Hardie, a building materials manufacturer, faced a slow and manual vendor onboarding process that took up to eight weeks and created security risks. Their CISO, Jeff Deakins, sought a solution from VISO TRUST to automate their third-party risk management and replace lengthy security questionnaires.

VISO TRUST implemented its automated security assessment platform, which evaluates vendor documentation like SOC 2 reports and questionnaires. This solution dramatically reduced James Hardie's vendor review time from weeks to just 10-15 minutes, provided consistent risk identification, and allowed their security team to manage the process part-time instead of full-time.
