Security Assessments

Vendor assessments that take
minutes, not months

Automate the painful parts of vendor assessment while keeping your team in control. CheckFirst combines AI analysis, external scanning, and structured frameworks to give you a complete picture of vendor security — fast.

How assessments work

Six steps to a complete vendor assessment

Add your vendor

Create a supplier profile with basic details — name, website, industry, criticality tier. The 9-stage lifecycle tracking begins automatically.

Scan with ProvEye

Run an external security scan on the vendor's domain. ProvEye independently analyses DNS health (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), SSL/TLS status, open ports, security headers (HSTS, CSP), and known vulnerabilities. No questionnaire needed. Results in 30–60 seconds.

AI-powered assessment

Launch a JinoXtreme CSA assessment to evaluate the vendor against all 243 CSA Cloud Controls Matrix controls across 18 security domains. The AI produces per-control compliance ratings (Compliant, Partially Compliant, Non-Compliant) with evidence-based justifications.

Send Smart Questionnaires

Generate targeted questionnaires using AI that adapts questions to the vendor's profile and risk level. Jino-QA analyses responses for completeness, quality, consistency, and compliance alignment.

Research with Jino 360

Automatically gather vendor intelligence from multiple web sources — company website, news, security incidents, compliance certifications, public filings. AI synthesises findings into a structured profile.

Review, score, decide

All data feeds into a unified risk profile with 5×5 matrix scoring. Review AI-generated reports with executive summaries, detailed findings, and prioritised recommendations.

Assessment types

Five engines, one platform

Each assessment type attacks vendor risk from a different angle. Together, they give you complete coverage.
