    Key Features

    • Provider Registration: After registering a risk intelligence provider, you can select their scoring services and map their scores to your organization's TPRM ratings.
    • Score Normalization: Add raw scores from providers to the service record for a third party, allowing the system to normalize these values to your TPRM ratings.
    • Provider-Based Submission Rules: Create conditions that trigger automated actions, such as sending assessments or notifications when a rating updates from a provider.
    • Integration Types: ServiceNow supports various integrations including ISV, content, data, and ESG to enhance your third-party risk management process.

    Key Outcomes

    By integrating scores from risk intelligence providers, organizations can:

    • Enhance risk assessment accuracy through reliable scoring systems.
    • Automate risk management processes, improving efficiency and response times.
    • Utilize comprehensive integration options to gather and analyze vital data from multiple sources.

    For practical implementation, refer to related tasks such as registering a provider and setting up associated services and request types.

    Risk intelligence providers generate risk scores for a variety of third-party risk domains. Your organization can purchase services from providers that return data that is analogous to personal credit scores. The scores provide insight on how trustworthy and safe a particular third party can be.
