Before You Trust Your Supplier With Your Information, Know How They Protect It.
SysAssure independently assesses supplier IT environments, cybersecurity, data handling, access controls, ERP systems, infrastructure, backup, third-party access and information-security practices so international buyers can understand supplier technology risk before and during business relationships.
Test. Inspect. Identify. Improve. Assure. For international buyers, procurement teams, compliance teams and organizations working with suppliers, manufacturers and vendors across global supply chains.
You Inspect the Product. You Audit the Factory. But Who Checks the Supplier's IT?
International business increasingly depends on digital information exchanged between buyers and suppliers. A supplier may receive technical drawings, product specifications, purchase orders, customer information, pricing, contracts, production information, quality data, engineering documents and forecasts.
A supplier can have a modern factory while still having weaknesses in user access, privileged accounts, remote access, endpoint security, ERP permissions, backup, email security, network security, data sharing, third-party access or information retention.

Use SysAssure before onboarding, during supplier qualification, during ongoing relationships, after major technology changes, or when contractual or customer security requirements demand evidence.

Cybersecurity assessment for suppliers
Your ERP contains your business intelligence. Is it protected?
We assess SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Odoo, custom and manufacturing ERP, LIMS, CRM, HRMS and other applications: user roles, privileges, segregation of duties, approval workflows, sensitive data access, audit trails, configuration, integrations, database access, reporting, backups, change management and administrator access.
Assessment Against International Standards and Customer Requirements.
SysAssure uses a risk-based methodology and can map relevant controls against applicable standards, frameworks, contracts and customer requirements.
Your supplier's IT environment is part of your supply chain risk.
Modern supply chains depend on connected IT, OT, cloud, applications, data and third parties. Supply-chain cybersecurity risk management means identifying, assessing and mitigating risk across the supplier lifecycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a supplier IT security assessment?
An independent, evidence-based review of the IT environment, cybersecurity controls and information-handling practices a supplier uses to protect a buyer's information.
Why should international buyers assess supplier cybersecurity?
Suppliers often hold drawings, pricing, customer and production data. Weak controls can expose that information and disrupt supply, so assessment helps buyers understand and manage the risk.
What information should suppliers protect?
Technical drawings, specifications, purchase orders, pricing, contracts, customer data, production and quality data, forecasts and anything the buyer or contract identifies as confidential.
What does SysAssure inspect?
Infrastructure, network and firewalls, endpoints, cloud and Microsoft 365, email, ERP and business applications, user and privileged access, backup and recovery, third-party access, policies and data-handling practices.
Does SysAssure certify ISO 27001?
No. SysAssure provides assessment, gap analysis, readiness and assurance services and does not issue ISO certification unless operating under an appropriately accredited certification arrangement.
How does supplier due diligence work?
The scope is agreed, information and systems are identified, controls are reviewed and tested, evidence is collected, and gaps are rated by risk and reported with a remediation roadmap. Ongoing monitoring and reassessment can follow.
How is confidential information assessed?
SysAssure assesses the controls around the information lifecycle: receive, classify, store, access, process, share, back up, retain and delete. The assessment focuses on controls rather than on the confidential content itself.
How long does an assessment take?
It depends on scope, supplier size, number of sites and systems. A timeline is agreed after scoping.
What does the final report contain?
An executive summary, scope, systems reviewed, findings by domain, evidence summary, risk ratings (Critical, High, Medium, Low), a gap register and a prioritized remediation roadmap.
Can SysAssure reassess after remediation?
Yes. Optional retesting can verify remediation. No particular outcome is guaranteed.
