Frequently Asked Questions

The assessment provides a clear view of your security posture with detailed feedback on your company's strengths and areas for improvement. This helps you understand your cybersecurity position relative to competitors and enables you to meet your clients' needs. The CyberVadis assessment process offers several additional benefits, including:

  • The ability to share your scorecard with an unlimited number of potential and existing partners to leverage your cybersecurity posture as a competitive advantage.
  • As a first-level check, the scorecard details your company’s cybersecurity practices, strengths, and risk areas.
  • Our collaborative platform allows vendors and clients to work together towards future improvements, strengthening their long-term relationships.
  • The CyberVadis methodology is founded on widely recognized standards and certifications. Your scorecard may serve as a reference for future cybersecurity evaluations.
  • Companies must prove compliance with GDPR data privacy. CyberVadis verifies the implementation of measures to respect these rules.

Under the EU’s GDPR (Article 28), companies are responsible for ensuring proper data handling, both internally and through third-party vendors. To help demonstrate your compliance with this regulation, the CyberVadis questionnaire includes GDPR-specific questions to assess whether you have implemented the necessary controls. Our analysts evaluate:

  • Appointment of data privacy roles.
  • Identification and management of personal data processing.
  • Consideration of data privacy requirements in personal data transfers.
  • Integration of data privacy in procurement and project management.
  • Employee training on data privacy.
  • Compliance with data processing principles (lawfulness, rights, retention).
  • Procedures for notifying controllers or regulators in case of a data breach.

To ensure accurate scores, vendors must provide evidence for every answer in the questionnaire. Examples of required documentation include:

  • Policies, roles, and responsibilities
  • Risk management reports and action plans
  • Evidence of information security processes (e.g., incident management, access control)

As evidence might include personally identifiable and sensitive information, vendors can mask part of the evidence to demonstrate compliance while keeping it confidential.
