Today we’re releasing a new tool called AIEnhance, to help vendors respond faster and more accurately to questionnaires. Powered by AI, this feature is the first of its kind, as it allows vendors to turn short bullet points or rough draft notes into full sentence responses with the click of a button. It can correct grammatical mistakes, remove typos, and improve responses instantly without having to leave the questionnaire.

This feature is now in beta, available to all vendors who have been sent an UpGuard standard questionnaire. It is not yet available on custom questionnaires. We welcome feedback as we continue to make it easier and faster to respond to questionnaires. Learn more about AIEnhance.

Improved IP range presentation

The IP Ranges tab will now only show ranges that are wholly owned by the organization you are viewing. 

Risk for VMWare daemon

We will now raise a high severity risk when the VMWare authentication daemon is publicly exposed, a service that is used in products including ESXi. 

Informational risk for Meta Pixel

We will now raise an informational risk when we detect the Meta/Facebook Pixel. While this technology can be implemented benignly, it has been involved in several data breaches where personal health information was improperly transmitted to Meta via the tracking Pixel. 

Improvements to additional evidence 

Vendor Risk customers now have more flexibility to track additional evidence that is attached to a monitored vendor, with these changes:

  • Additional evidence risks are now able to be edited
  • New additional evidence document classification types have been added, alongside the ability to add your own custom types

For more information about these changes see  How to capture additional evidence.
