Generated from the live catalogue at build time — control identifiers and CyberSentien's own labels; no standard text is reproduced.

Honest coverage

Verdicts against the FULL catalogue — controls without evidence read “manual assessment required”, never a fabricated pass.

Evidence lineage

Every report carries a run id and SHA-256 integrity anchor; sections trace to the controls and evidence they rest on.

One assessment, every report

The same run renders the Third-Party Risk Management (NIST 800-161 / CPS 230) report, executive brief and board pack — no drift between audiences.

Frequently asked

What is the best third-party risk management approach for APRA entities?

One that assesses real vendor evidence against CPS 230/234 rather than relying on self-attested questionnaires (SIG Lite/Core). CyberSentien grades evidence and flags gaps, feeding the material service provider register.

How does TPRM connect to CPS 230?

CPS 230 makes material service providers a board obligation. A TPRM program identifies material providers, evidences the mandatory contract terms and fourth-party risk, and populates the register APRA can request.

Is CyberSentien hosted in Australia?

Yes — CyberSentien is AU-sovereign with AI that runs inside the client boundary, so vendor and evidence data does not leave your control, unlike US-hosted alternatives.

Do questionnaires satisfy CPS 230 third-party requirements?

Questionnaires capture assertions; CPS 230 expects defensible evidence. CyberSentien assesses the underlying evidence so a vendor's claims are verified, never assumed.
