Sometimes the HECVAT is filled out by sales people, other times it's leadership - there really is not any consistency in who within the vendor's organization complete's ...

The tool was developed in 2018 by our then Director of Information Security and Deputy CISO. The tool has been refined and evolved over ...

At UArizona, using the HECVAT or reviewing a SOC2 Type II is not a requirement, but are encouraged to assess a vendor's security posture through the vendor management lifecycle.
