Third-Party Monitoring

Third-party monitoring is the continuous process of detecting risk changes in external suppliers — in real time and automated.

Third-party monitoring goes beyond periodic audits: it continuously captures changes in a supplier's risk profile — new vulnerabilities, data breaches, dark web leaks, certificate losses or financial problems.

What is monitored?

Complete third-party monitoring covers: cybersecurity score (daily), known vulnerabilities (CVEs), dark web leaks and credential exposure, SSL/TLS certificates, DNS and IP infrastructure, data breach databases, financial metrics and insolvency risk, and certification and compliance status.

360-degree view in real time

360TPRM monitors over 200 external data points per supplier — daily, automated, without manual questionnaires.

Continuous vs. periodic

Annual supplier audits are outdated: cyber risks can change within hours. A supplier that is ISO 27001 certified today may be affected by a zero-day exploit tomorrow. NIS2 and DORA therefore explicitly require continuous monitoring — not just annual reviews.

Annual audits are not enough

The average data breach is detected after 207 days (IBM 2023). Continuous monitoring reduces this to hours.

FAQ

How does monitoring differ from audits?+

Audits are periodic spot checks. Monitoring is continuous and automated — detecting risk changes immediately, not at the next audit.

What data sources does 360TPRM use?+

360TPRM uses over 50 external data sources: vulnerability databases, dark web feeds, certificate transparency logs, threat intelligence feeds and more.
