Supply Chain and Vendor Management Made Easy
Retail stores of all types are continuously pressured to deliver innovative products and top-notch customer service while often operating on razor-thin margins. Consequently, many have found themselves relying on a complex environment of third parties including supply chains, vendors, franchise owners, and independent contractors to cost-effectively compete.
While the operational challenges of utilizing third parties are often recognized, a potentially more impactful issue is unmeasured risk exposure. The 2018 Ponemon Institute supply chain study found that over half of organizations have had their data breached by a vendor.
Retailers have tried to address some of the operational challenges by utilizing HR systems to improve third-party identity management and Vendor Management Systems to measure risk but these “fixes” typically don’t solve the problem and frequently introduce more issues. In fact, not only do HR systems lack collaborative onboarding capabilities needed for third parties, they are usually very costly, and expose the organization to misclassification of employment risk.
Retailers need a solution built from the ground up that creates an authoritative source of supply chain data at the individual level, automates key workflows related to onboarding and offboarding, and importantly mitigates the risk of utilizing supply chain and vendors resources.

Identity Risk Solution for Franchisors with SecZetta
SecZetta Can Help
Our solutions provide a comprehensive set of capabilities that help retailers improve the operational efficiency and reduce the cost and risk of managing third-party identities. With SecZetta, retailers are able to manage the lifecycle of their third party, non-employees, vetting each individual, and pro-actively (and continuously) assessing their risk.
Retailers providing third-party access to users in their supply chain can ensure that access is based on least privilege, meaning the appropriate privileges are granted for the appropriate resources at a specific point in time, and that access is terminated in a timely manner when it is no longer required. For retailers looking to hire large seasonal staff, bulk uploads of new users are supported.
With SecZetta, retailers have better transparency into the relationships they have with each third-party identity and are thus able to make well-informed, risk-based decisions about provisioning, verifying, and deprovisioning access.
