We’re excited to share several important updates and improvements across the platform, designed to improve your vendor management experience and provide better insights and task management.
Whistic Assess
Vendor Details Page Redesign
Our newly redesigned Vendor Details page makes navigating and managing vendor information easier and more intuitive.
What’s New:
- Easier Navigation: We’ve replaced the old accordion dropdowns with a streamlined sub-menu for faster access to each section.
- At-A-Glance Information: The new informational header displays key vendor details upfront, saving you time.
- More Space for Work: Each module now has its own dedicated workspace, allowing for smoother workflows and future enhancements.
We hope these updates make your experience more efficient and user-friendly. Learn more here
Vendor Summary: Creating Issues
You can now create and track issues directly from the Vendor Summary. Whether following up on a specific vendor question or monitoring something over time, simply create an issue, and it will be tracked in the Issues section for seamless follow-ups and better organization. Learn more here
Vendor Summary: Compliance Percentage
We’ve added a new Compliance Percentage to the Vendor Summary. As soon as AI generates the summary, the percentage of security controls that were found to be compliant is displayed in the header (along with the number of questions AI was unable to answer). These numbers update as you make manual changes, offering a quick, accurate overview of the vendor's compliance with your selected security framework. Learn more here
Vendor Summary: Reporting Enhancements
You can now report on Vendor Summary results using a wide range of criteria, including:
- Framework/Questionnaire
- Date Run
- Who Ran the Summary
- Status
These reporting enhancements allow you to easily track and monitor your vendors, helping you make more informed decisions. Learn more here
Vendor Intake Form: Hidden Questions Toggle
We’ve simplified the Vendor Intake Form section by introducing a new Show Necessary Fields toggle. Non-required fields will automatically be hidden reducing clutter and making it easier to focus on key information. This helps streamline your view and reduce confusion.
Whistic Profile
Trust Catalog System Requests - Updates
To ensure data freshness, Assess customers will now see more up-to-date vendor insights in the Trust Catalog. For Profile customers, reminders will be sent at the 18-month mark to prompt you to update the content on your Trust Catalog profile and maintain Whistic Ready status. Notifications will be sent via email and will appear on your Task List dashboard to help keep your Whistic Profile current and compliant. Learn more here
Whistic Platform
New Task List Enhancements
We’ve made task management even easier with our updated Task List feature:
- View all your tasks in a clear list format.
- Use the new search bar or sort the columns to quickly find specific tasks.
- Access Whistic Recommendations to receive reminders for updating content (currently only for Profile customers).
This improvement allows you to better prioritize tasks and stay organized. Learn more here

DORA Questionnaire
We’ve introduced a Whistic-made questionnaire based on the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), Regulation EU 2022/2554. This new questionnaire helps financial institutions in the European Union comply with ICT risk management standards, ensuring stronger operational resilience. It can be accessed in Whistic here.

Whistic completed a Security Assessment on HackerOne by reviewing their SOC 2 report. The validated assessment has been added to HackerOne's Trust Catalog Security Profile and is available for import.
