SecurityScorecard Partners with City of Baton Rouge to Strengthen Cyber Resilience Across Municipal Supply Chain

SecurityScorecard deploys TITAN AI in the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge to provide continuous visibility into vendor and supply chain cyber risk

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SecurityScorecard, the global leader in threat-informed third-party risk management (TPRM), today announced a partnership with the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge to strengthen cyber risk visibility across the city's vendor and technology ecosystem.

Through the partnership, SecurityScorecard will deploy its TPRM platform to help the City's Office of Information Technology identify, prioritize, and manage third-party cyber risk across the vendors and service providers that support city operations and resident services.

As municipalities increasingly depend on third-party vendors to deliver public services, gaps in supply chain visibility create direct exposure to ransomware, data breaches, and service disruption. SecurityScorecard's TITAN AI gives city IT leaders continuous, outside-in visibility into vendor risk, enabling faster identification of emerging threats and stronger vendor accountability.

"Protecting the systems and vendors our residents depend on every day is a top priority for our administration," said Mayor-President Sid Edwards. "This partnership with SecurityScorecard gives us the visibility we need to stay ahead of cyber threats targeting our supply chain and to keep the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge’s essential services running safely."

"Our vendor ecosystem has grown more complex, and with it, our exposure to third-party risk," said Rizwan Ahmed, Chief Information Officer for the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge. "SecurityScorecard's platform gives our team continuous, actionable visibility into that risk so we can act before small gaps become real incidents."

"Cities are increasingly targeted through the vendors and partners they rely on to deliver services," said Michael Centrella, Head of Public Policy at SecurityScorecard. "By giving the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge continuous visibility into its supply chain risk, we can help the City of Baton Rouge/Parish of East Baton Rouge's security leaders act faster, strengthen resilience, and keep resident trust intact."

SecurityScorecard works with government and critical infrastructure organizations to deliver continuous cyber risk intelligence that helps teams identify vulnerabilities, prioritize action, and reduce exposure across their third-party environment. The partnership reflects SecurityScorecard's continued commitment to helping public sector organizations move beyond periodic assessments toward a proactive, threat-informed approach to managing third-party cyber risk.
