Many small businesses rely on third-party service providers to support daily operations, from IT services and cloud platforms to software and data processing vendors. The FTC Safeguards Rule requires organizations to take reasonable steps to ensure these providers can protect customer information and to oversee their handling of that data over time.

Triple H Solutions helps organizations establish a structured approach to vendor security oversight that is practical and defensible. We assist with identifying which service providers have access to customer information, defining reasonable due diligence expectations, and documenting how providers are evaluated before and after engagement. The focus is on risk-based oversight rather than one-size-fits-all requirements.

This service also addresses ongoing monitoring. We help define how often providers are reviewed, what triggers reassessment, and how findings are documented within your written information security program. This ensures vendor oversight remains aligned with business operations, evolving risks, and FTC Safeguards Rule expectations.

The result is clearer accountability for third-party risk, reduced exposure from vendor-related security incidents, and a documented oversight process that supports compliance and informed decision-making.
