When you open Risk → Vendors for the first time, you’ll notice Scrut Automation is already listed as a default vendor.
Why is Scrut Pre-Added?
Since Scrut is a vendor for your organization providing compliance automation services, we've eliminated the need for you to manually add Scrut in the vendor module. This helps save time and avoid repetitive work, as we’ve pre-filled the Scrut vendor entry with essential information.
When you click into the Scrut Automation vendor record, you'll find:
The Scrut Automation vendor record includes the following pre-populated fields:
Vendor profile: Name, URL, and a detailed service description explaining what Scrut does for your organization
Vendor category: Set as Security

Organization-wide scope: Applied across all your entities by default
