In 2026, a slow assessment is a security risk. Every day spent in manual handoffs is a day of exposure for your organization. Join us at UpGuard Summit to see how our new Risk Automations engine transforms TPRM from a static checklist into an autonomous system. We will show you how to automate everything from vendor follow-ups to instant Jira routing for IT and Legal.

How many new vendors did your team engage with today? If you’re looking at your official procurement list, the answer might be zero. But if you’re looking at employee behavior, the reality is likely much higher.

Garrett Hamilton recently presented at the North Texas ISSA Lunch & Learn in Plano, TX to talk about what risk reduction actually looks like in practice. Reach shows customers exactly which controls they've deployed, the user impact of those changes, and how much risk has been reduced across IAM, EDR, email, firewall, and SASE. Not feature checklists. Targeted, measurable outcomes tied to the business.

In this week’s Weekly Brief: The Cyber Risk and Policy Edition, SecurityScorecard’s Director, Public Sector Channel Amanda Smith breaks down why the U.S. war with Iran is more than just what takes place on the physical battlefront. In 2026, as conflict unfolds in the Middle East, the digital battlefield has a direct impact on the homeland and U.S. critical infrastructure, too. “It's a global digital confrontation that hits a lot closer to home than a lot of people realize.”

This is SecurityScorecard's Weekly Brief: The Adversary Insights Edition with SecurityScorecard's CISO Steve Cobb. Critical infrastructure security in the U.S. remains an important element of the ongoing conflict between the U.S. and Iran with Iranian-linked threat actors targeting US-based assets. Iranian threat actors have focused their efforts on the fastest methods of attack by searching for what Cobb calls “low hanging fruit” in critical infrastructure environments where many organizations have exposed systems.

As organizations shift to cloud services and third-party vendors, maintaining visibility and control over cyber risk has become increasingly complex. In this video, we explore one of the biggest challenges facing security leaders today: how to manage cyber risk without full visibility into your environment. Learn why visibility is critical to effective cybersecurity—and how the right data enables organizations to.

The cyber risk landscape is evolving faster than ever—creating new challenges for organizations trying to maintain visibility and control. In this video, we explore why data is the foundation of effective cyber risk management. As risk becomes more dynamic and complex, organizations must be able to: Respond to threats as they emerge—not after the fact Without high-quality, actionable data, managing cyber risk simply isn’t possible.

Vendor relationships don’t stay static—and neither does the risk they introduce. In this video, we break down a common misconception in third-party risk management: that vendor risk remains constant after onboarding. The reality? As vendors grow and their digital footprint expands, risk increases over time. Learn why organizations must move beyond point-in-time assessments and adopt a more modern approach to vendor risk management.

This is SecurityScorecard's Weekly Brief: The CISO Edition with SecurityScorecard's CISO Steve Cobb. Is it time to retire the vendor questionnaire and annual assessment routines? Not quite, but following face-to-face customer interactions and many forward-thinking speaking sessions at RSAC 2026, CISO Steve Cobb emphasizes the importance of reducing risk for TPRM programs, which is not achieved by completing a third-party risk assessment checklist alone.
