The Office of Information Security (OIS) conducts a security assessment as the initial step in a multi-phase evaluation by the University before approving or onboarding a new vendor/third-party within Villanova University's environment. Our main goal is to ensure these entities are properly vetted and provide appropriate protections for Villanova's institutional data. This process, otherwise known as the Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) review, informs risk mitigation during the scoping and contracting phase, identifying additional contractual or technical/information security requirements and helping avoid unforeseen delays in engagement, implementation or onboarding.
