    Integrate the Certa third-party risk management (TPRM) platform with SecurityScorecard to onboard vendors quickly and easily. View vendors' top-level scores and factor scores directly in Certa as they go through the onboarding process.

    Meet Certa

    Certa's mission is to connect companies safely and efficiently. The automated workflows, collaboration tools, and flexible no-code integrations of Certa's onboarding solution digitize the end-to-end third-party journey.

    Set up the integration

    In Certa, the SecurityScorecard integration is accessible as a template that you can provide to the Certa team while onboarding their Certa instance, or afterwards. Using this template, you see a step in Certa's onboarding application that includes a company’s third-party vendor scores.

    To use this integration, you need active accounts in SecurityScorecard and Certa.

    Generate a SecurityScorecard API key

    The Certa team will ask you to provide this key during the installation of the template. 

    1. In SecurityScorecard, click your profile avatar in the top-right corner, and select My Settings.
