A major customer requires a CyberVadis assessment, with a threshold to reach and a deadline. Nobody in house whose actual job this is. That is exactly when companies call us, and it resolves in six weeks.
Book the assessment readiness check, 20 minutesFree, no commitment. You leave with a clear answer either way.
They assess their suppliers through CyberVadis
Sources: case studies published by CyberVadis and the evaluators' own trust pages. If your customer is that size, the assessment eventually lands.
CyberVadis assesses 123 security controls, and three mechanisms surprise almost every company assessed:
A control declared without evidence scores zero, and the evidence has to show both design and operating effectiveness. A signed policy nobody follows earns nothing.
Not just overall. You can clear the overall bar comfortably and still fail on a single focus area.
The date that matters is your buyer's own campaign deadline. Submitting on time with a score below the threshold protects nothing.
Six weeks, an audit-ready evidence file, without mobilizing your team. You write nothing: policies, procedures, registers and evidence are prepared for you. You validate.
Signature, access granted. You receive the engagement plan.
Prioritized gap readout within 7 days, tenant logging activated, first dated evidence.
Documentation drafted for you, priority remediations. You validate, shared progress tracker.
Evidence kit assembled, full pre-submission review.
Submission and executive readout, with a deck ready to present to your customer.
A supplier assessed at about 450, for a contract renewal with a major energy group.
A supplier that had failed at 550 for a global cosmetics group, resubmitted at one of the highest levels of the framework.
The target score is set together after the diagnostic, and we guarantee it: we work until it is reached, at no extra cost.
Three conditions make the outcome certain: access granted at signature, your validations within a few days, and priority remediations applied.
SecuredShift works with companies of 1 to 500 people that have to prove their security posture to a customer much larger than they are. Consultant certified CISSP, OSCP, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer. We run at most five engagements in parallel.
Six weeks from signature to submission, with a first gap readout delivered within 7 days.
Not automatically: each buyer decides. Its real value is a single security baseline that answers every customer questionnaire.
Most buyers accept a reassessment, but their campaign has a deadline. That is why the engagement calendar is built backwards from your customer's deadline, not the platform's.
One contact for validations and access is enough. Documents and evidence are produced for you.
The first conversation is about finding out whether you are actually at risk, and it costs nothing.
