DENVER–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CyberGRX, provider of the world’s first and largest global risk exchange, today announced it has been named a Niche Player in the 2020 Gartner Magic Quadrant for IT Vendor Risk Management Tools. For the second year in a row, CyberGRX was recognized for its ability to execute and completeness of vision for its VRM solution.

The company was also named in Gartner’s 2020 Critical Capabilities Report for IT Vendor Risk Management Tools. Here, CyberGRX tied for first in scoring the highest points total for its assessment in the VRM Solution and Vendor Risk Assessment Data use case.

“We are excited to be part of both the Gartner IT VRM Magic Quadrant and Critical Capabilities reports again this year. We believe CyberGRX’s exclusive focus on cyber risk means we have the best cyber data available for organizations building and managing their third-party cyber risk,” said Fred Kneip, CEO of CyberGRX. “As more companies embrace digital transformation their reliance on third parties, such as cloud and IoT providers, continues to grow—and so does their cyber risk. We are encouraged to see more TPCRM solutions in the market, as evolving third-party cyber risks necessitate increasingly innovative answers for businesses.”
