Problem
Organizations face increasing risks from third-party vendors who often lack robust cybersecurity measures, creating vulnerabilities that can be exploited by attackers. Traditional methods of assessing and managing these third-party cyber risks are often time-consuming, require significant manpower, and lack real-time visibility into evolving threats. This leaves businesses exposed to potential data breaches and cyber attacks originating from their supply chain.

The platform uses a proprietary algorithm that analyzes cyber threat intelligence, asset vulnerabilities, and darknet data to predict the probability of a successful cyber attack. By providing a comprehensive overview of the risk landscape, Sling enables organizations to proactively identify and remediate vulnerabilities within their vendor ecosystem, reducing the likelihood of third-party breaches. The agentless solution streamlines the assessment process, providing instant insights without requiring any software installation on vendor systems.
