Verdantix Risk Management Technology Roadmap

We’re delighted to share that 3rdRisk has once again been recognised by Verdantix, this time in their newly published Tech Roadmap: Risk Management Technologies (2025). The report identifies 3rdRisk as an innovative player in both third-party risk management (TPRM) and reputational risk monitoring—a powerful affirmation of our vision to reimagine risk management through smarter technology.

“Innovative applications, such as 3rdRisk’s gamified chatbot for internal control testing, show potential to boost engagement through features such as Microsoft Teams integration and incentive systems.”

Positioned at the Forefront of Growth

Verdantix places Third-Party Risk Management Software and Reputational Risk Monitoring Tools in the Growth phase of their technology lifecycle—signalling high business value, rising customer demand, and ongoing innovation. These technologies are no longer ‘nice to have’—they’re core components of a modern risk strategy:

  • TPRM platforms like 3rdRisk are increasingly vital as firms face expanding supply chains, tightening regulations, and rising cyber threats. Verdantix highlights the need for continuous risk monitoring, automated assessments, and real-time risk intelligence feeds—all of which are central to our platform.
  • Reputational risk tools are gaining traction as the frequency and impact of public crises grow. 3rdRisk stands out for enabling early-warning signals and integrated responses, ensuring organisations stay one step ahead of potential brand and compliance threats.

Innovation That’s More Than Buzzwords

One area where 3rdRisk is called out specifically is our gamified chatbot. By combining engagement mechanics with Microsoft Teams integration, we empower users, not just risk professionals, to be part of the compliance process. In a world where trust, adoption, and usability matter as much as features, our solution is built for real-world impact.

Verdantix notes that the chatbot market remains “patchy and largely unproven”—but singles out 3rdRisk’s design as showing “potential to boost engagement” and overcome the challenges that typically plague AI-powered risk and compliance tools.

Why This Matters

Recognition like this, alongside earlier mentions from Gartner and Liminal, confirms what our customers already tell us:
They need a smarter, easier, and more integrated way to manage third-party risk and reputational exposure.

According to Verdantix, 35.5% of data breaches in 2024 were linked to third-party compromises, and incidents like Delta’s $550M loss from a third-party IT failure highlight the real-world stakes.

At 3rdRisk, we’re not just tracking risks. We help you act on them.
