These could include: Duplicate risk discoveries - Duplicate or related security risks could have an excessively negative impact on a vendor’s security posture.

Note: All decisions to waive vendor security risks should be conducted through a Vendor Risk Management framework trusted by information security professionals and supportive of regulatory compliance. This will remove all bias from risk waiver decisions, ensuring vendor risk ratings are always adjusted toward greater accuracy.
