The Higher Education Community Vendor Assessment Toolkit (HECVAT) is a comprehensive framework designed to help colleges and universities evaluate the data security and privacy practices of third-party vendors. Developed by The Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC), in conjunction with the Shared Assessments Working Group, EDUCAUSE, Internet2, and the Research & Education Networks Information Sharing & Analysis Center (REN-ISAC), HECVAT helps institutions streamline the vendor assessment process and ensure that they are partnering with vendors that adhere to the highest standards of data protection.
By leveraging HECVAT, educational institutions can efficiently identify potential risks, protect sensitive data, and maintain compliance with relevant regulations and industry best practices.
