Vendor Risk Management Without the Spreadsheet Chaos
Korinza automates third-party risk assessments with structured questionnaires, risk scoring, and renewal tracking — replacing the email threads and shared spreadsheets that most vendor risk programs run on.
- Automated questionnaire workflows
- Vendor risk scoring and tiering
- Renewal and expiry tracking
- SOC 2 and ISO 27001 vendor control requirements
Vendor Inventory
Maintain a complete vendor registry with risk tier, contract status, and assessment history. Know exactly which vendors have access to sensitive data and when their last assessment was completed.
Questionnaire Automation
Send structured risk assessment questionnaires to vendors via a secure portal. Vendors complete the questionnaire without needing a Korinza account — responses are automatically scored and stored.
Risk Scoring
Korinza automatically scores vendor responses against your risk criteria and assigns a risk tier (critical, high, medium, low). High-risk vendors are flagged for immediate follow-up.
Renewal Tracking
Track contract renewals, assessment expiry dates, and SOC 2 report validity. Korinza sends automated reminders before renewals lapse so you never have an unreviewed critical vendor.
Framework Alignment
Vendor risk controls are pre-mapped to SOC 2 CC9.2, ISO 27001 A.15, and NIST CSF DE.CM requirements — so your vendor program directly supports your compliance posture.
AI-Assisted Review
Korinza's AI assistant can summarise vendor questionnaire responses, flag inconsistencies, and suggest follow-up questions — reducing the manual review burden on your team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is vendor risk management software?
Vendor risk management (VRM) software helps organisations assess, monitor, and manage the risks posed by third-party vendors and suppliers. It automates the questionnaire process, tracks risk scores over time, and ensures that vendor assessments are completed on schedule — replacing manual spreadsheet and email-based processes.
Do vendors need a Korinza account to complete questionnaires?
No. Vendors receive a secure link to a questionnaire portal and can complete their assessment without creating an account. Responses are automatically imported into Korinza and scored against your risk criteria.
How does Korinza handle vendor contract renewals?
Korinza tracks contract end dates and assessment expiry dates for every vendor. Automated reminders are sent to the vendor owner before renewals lapse, and overdue assessments are flagged on the vendor risk dashboard.
Can I customise the vendor questionnaire?
Yes. Korinza ships with a standard vendor risk questionnaire template, but you can add, remove, or modify questions to match your organisation's specific risk criteria and regulatory requirements.
