Cybersecurity vendors face more security questionnaires than any other industry. Every deal — from SMB to large enterprise — comes with CAIQs, SIGs, VSAs, penetration-testing attestations, and custom vendor risk assessments that require complete accuracy, deep technical detail, and fast turnaround.
For cybersecurity and IT security providers, these questionnaires drain engineering time, slow down sales cycles, and create endless repeat work. Iris automates the entire process with an AI-powered knowledge base that centralizes your security documentation and produces accurate, audit-ready responses in minutes.
Enterprise buyers expect exceptional rigor from cybersecurity vendors. That means questionnaires regularly include:
This creates recurring bottlenecks:

Iris auto-fills repeated questions across:
Teams reclaim hours — and speed up every deal cycle.
Iris becomes your single source of truth for:
No more searching across Confluence, Notion, or Google Drive.
Cybersecurity vendors live and die by precision. Iris ensures that every answer reflects:
Iris handles the majority of repeated answers automatically. SMEs only review:
This dramatically reduces the burden on engineering and security teams.
No more email chains or conflicting versions. Iris provides:
For complex compliance-heavy workflows, see RFP Automation for Cybersecurity & IT Security Providers with Iris.
Teams answer security questions accurately during early-stage conversations — building trust before formal reviews begin.
Iris handles all repetitive content, allowing SMEs to focus on sensitive or architecture-specific areas.
Iris provides consistent, verified documentation for:
Use Iris as the central hub for renewals, annual audits, quarterly compliance updates, and customer security requests.
Across cybersecurity platforms, teams report:
Iris turns your security posture into a competitive advantage.
Cybersecurity vendors choose Iris because it delivers:
Security questionnaires are unavoidable — but they don’t have to be slow, painful, or engineering-heavy. Iris helps cybersecurity and IT security providers complete them with speed, consistency, and accuracy, freeing teams to focus on product innovation instead of procurement admin.
Iris automatically identifies every question in CAIQs, SIGs, VSAs, Excel files, and portal-based assessments, and fills answers using a verified, centralized security knowledge base. Recurring questions around encryption, IAM, logging, monitoring, vulnerability management, DR/BCP, and architecture are completed instantly, leaving SMEs to review only complex or unusual items. This reduces completion time by 60–90% and accelerates deal cycles.
Iris becomes the single repository for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 mappings, penetration-test summaries, red-team reports, architecture diagrams, data-flow diagrams, SIEM and logging workflows, threat detection processes, risk management policies, encryption documentation, access control procedures, and secure development lifecycle (SDLC) materials. This ensures all questionnaire responses use accurate, current, and audit-ready information.
Instead of rewriting technical answers for every new assessment, Iris reuses approved, accurate content automatically. Engineering and security teams only review edge cases, new policies, or architecture-specific questions. This eliminates repetitive work, prevents version confusion, and frees engineering resources to focus on product and roadmap priorities rather than vendor risk paperwork.
