Room For Improvement

OneTrust GRC users struggle with limited automation, integration issues, and seek enhanced features beyond IT risk management.
SecurityScorecard requires better responsiveness, remediation guidance, integration, customization, pricing, insights, accuracy, interface, mobile capabilities, and third-party risk management.
If SecurityScorecard could improve anything, it would be making sure the algorithm pulls the right data for the right domain.
IT operations risk analyst at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
There is a need for more active rather than passive third-party risk management features to truly mitigate risks.

SecurityScorecard could enhance some of the integrations based on AI platforms, where I could receive suggestions from the AI tool regarding why SecurityScorecard rates specific issues as critical or high.

There are more expensive and cheaper options available.

I expected slightly lower pricing.

Pricing is acceptable as per the Indian market.

Streamlined incident management with user-friendly automation tools and responsive support
I use OneTrust specifically for incident management. For my company, I helped to create the incident management program that we currently use, particularly with gathering the information and sending out assessments to different vendors to collect information for further research and discovery.  I…

Vendor risk monitoring has strengthened our security posture and reduced insurance costs
In terms of improvements, I feel SecurityScorecard could enhance some of the integrations based on AI platforms, where I could receive suggestions from the AI tool regarding why SecurityScorecard rates specific issues as critical or high. Details on the technical mitigation would help my non-technical teams understand the security issues better. I think improvements could be made on the reporting side as well, such as the ability to download customizable reports. While SecurityScorecard offers various kinds of reports now, they are limited to predefined formats. Having the ability to choose specific fields for an automated report would be very helpful.
