Effectively addressing third-party security risks is critical to maintaining a strong cybersecurity posture. Our Remediation Tasks feature empowers you to manage and resolve security issues identified through both questionnaire responses and external attack surface assessments—all in one streamlined, collaborative workspace.

Security issues flagged in questionnaire responses
Findings from external attack surface assessments
✅ Prioritize and assign to each third party
Prioritize remediation tasks based on severity or risk level
Set deadlines to drive timely resolution
Assign tasks to internal stakeholders or third-party contacts
✅ Collaborate in Real Time
Each remediation task includes built-in tools for smooth communication:
In-app chat for quick discussions with internal or external teams
Easy sharing capabilities for efficient collaboration
✅ Monitor Performance
Stay up to date on remediation progress:
View task status, completion percentage, and impact on posture rating
Identify bottlenecks or overdue items at a glance
Creating and Managing Tasks
You can create tasks directly from the Remediation & Tasks tab using the ‘Create Task’ dropdown button. The available options are:
1. Open a General Task
Internal Task: Assign to internal team members; unrelated to remediation
External Task: Assign a general task directly to the supplier
2. Create a Finding Remediation Task
Redirects you to the Findings page, where you can create a remediation task tied to specific issues.
3. Create a Questionnaire Remediation Task
Takes you to the Questionnaire page, allowing you to open a task tied to a particular question.
