Vendor Risk Management

Venture Lynk helps regulated industries evaluate the supply chain and personal private information risk presented by the company’s vendors and suppliers. These services can be deployed in consumer-centric industries such as mortgage lending and servicing, retail/consumer sales, healthcare, public/private utility, and financial services to name a few. Venture Lynk focuses on industries that have dynamic and extended supply chains that depend on vendors that may or may not touch Protected Private Information (PPI).
