SecurityScorecard
· #335 most-usedKnow your vendor's security score before they do
SecurityScorecard continuously monitors the external attack surface of any company and translates it into a letter-grade scorecard your team can act on. Connect it to Actionist and your agents can pull live factor scores, manage vendor portfolios, trigger remediation workflows the moment a score drops, and generate compliance reports — all in plain language, all without logging into the platform.
Eliminates manual work. Agents eliminate the manual work of logging into SecurityScorecard to check vendor scores, export reports, and update risk registers — replacing three hours of weekly copy-paste across spreadsheets and GRC tools.

SecurityScorecard × every other app you use
End-to-end automations that span multiple apps — each one a real business outcome.
Vendor score drop — zero to remediation in 5 min
When a supplier's SecurityScorecard grade slips, your agent doesn't wait for a weekly review — it fires within minutes. The agent reads the company's full factor breakdown to pinpoint exactly which security dimension triggered the drop, adds the vendor to a dedicated remediation-watch portfolio for tighter monitoring, posts a structured Slack alert to the #vendor-risk channel with the score delta and top failing factor, and drops a follow-up call on the customer-success manager's calendar so no remediation conversation falls through the cracks.
Time saved for your team — every week, on autopilot
