Top technology firms are joining together to address the increased importance of transparency between vendors and their customers by forming the Security First Initiative. The group pledges to put security first by sharing their security information proactively with their customers using a Whistic Profile and invites all companies to do the same.

To help companies meet this new Security First expectation, Whistic is offering vendors access to a free version of Whistic Profile that includes the ability for vendors to proactively share their security information with their customers, eliminating the need to repeatedly fill out questionnaires.

What Security First founding members are saying

Okta

“Okta supports the Security First Initiative and the recently released MVSP security baseline, both of which demonstrate the importance of working together to improve security for all our mutual customers. Okta has added MVSP to our Whistic Profile and we look forward to seeing more service providers adopt this baseline in their profiles,” said Gen Buckley, Senior Manager, Customer Assurance at Okta.

“Just like Asana believes collaboration and transparency between internal teams is mission critical, we also believe it's mission critical to establish transparent and trusted relationships with our customers and third-party vendors. That’s why we’re excited to join with so many leading companies and see the industry collectively embrace the Security First Initiative,” said Sean Cassidy, Head of Security at Asana.
