Summary

VISO TRUST is an AI-powered third-party cyber risk and trust platform that enables companies to access actionable vendor security information in minutes, reducing their threat surface in B2B transactions and thereby reducing overall risk posture. The company uses a combination of state-of-the-art models from OpenAI, Hugging Face, Anthropic, Google, and AWS, augmented by vector search and retrieval from MongoDB Atlas. VISO TRUST's platform approach automates vendor due diligence and reduces third-party at scale, saving security teams time and resources. The application utilizes various AI/ML techniques, including fine-tuning of pretrained models, dense retrieval using MongoDB Atlas Vector Search, and retrieval-augmented generation to provide instant intelligence to customers. MongoDB is used as a robust document database to fulfill specific objectives, providing effective solutions for the platform's mechanism to engage third parties efficiently. The company has achieved significant benefits from using MongoDB, including simplifying painful parts of database management and expanding its ML footprint with MongoDB. Future plans include continued evolution of Atlas Vector Search and its ecosystem in MongoDB.
