FRT and GRCS Launch AI-Driven Automated Screening Service for Cybersecurity Evaluation

FRT and GRCS Unveil AI Automated Screening Service

FRT Corporation, headquartered in Urasoe, Okinawa, in collaboration with GRCS, a Tokyo-based consulting firm specializing in GRC and cybersecurity, announced the launch of an innovative AI-driven screening service designed to support adherence to the Supply Chain Security (SCS) evaluation framework, starting August 2026.

Background of the Service

In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for visualizing and evaluating the security measures throughout entire supply chains due to rising cybersecurity risks. Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) has become crucial as enterprises increasingly seek to assess the cybersecurity posture of their business partners. Particularly in relation to the SCS evaluation framework, companies must organize their internal and partner security measures, conduct gap analysis, and respond to vast checklists. As a result, the workload and human resource burden have emerged as significant challenges.

To combat these challenges, the AI-powered Orion Risk Radar from FRT will automate the analysis and scoring of questionnaires, while GRCS contributes its profound GRC consulting expertise. This partnership aims to alleviate the burden on businesses while delivering high-quality compliance support.

Service Overview and Key Features

The aforementioned service merges the AI-driven automated analysis capabilities of Orion Risk Radar with a thorough review by GRCS’s expert consultants. The combined service is designed to provide seamless support from questionnaire responses through to expert confirmation reports and improvement proposals.

Key Features Include:

1. Rapid Automated Analysis and Response Completion:
Clients need only upload their existing security policies and related documents, allowing AI to automatically analyze and score the questionnaires, swiftly pinpointing any unmet requirements.

2. Dramatic Reduction of Response Workload:
Companies will only need to address items that the AI couldn’t answer, significantly cutting down on previous manual compilation and response efforts.

3. Expert Consultant Review:
Based on AI diagnostic results, GRCS cybersecurity consultants will meticulously review and refine responses, thereby enhancing diagnostic accuracy and quality assurance.

4. Evaluation Reporting and Roadmap Proposal:
Following evaluation, clients will receive detailed gap analyses and specific improvement roadmaps through explanatory reports and meetings.

Service Package Options

To cater to varying company needs and security phases, the service is offered through three distinct menu options:
- 1. AI Screening + Expert Advice (Spot Plan): A standalone AI-driven screening paired with GRCS consultancy advice and follow-up.
- 2. AI Screening + Expert Advice + ASM (Spot Plan): Include ASM (Attack Surface Management) functionality for the simultaneous external risk assessment of publicly available assets.
- 3. AI Screening + Expert Advice + ASM (Annual Plan): Ongoing monitoring and regular evaluations through a yearly contract.

For price details and additional information, potential clients are encouraged to contact FRT directly. Please note that requests for onsite support may involve additional travel expenses.

Future Developments

FRT and GRCS position this new service as the first step in enhancing compliance with the SCS evaluation framework. They plan to expand further into vulnerability management, ASM support, and establishing comprehensive GRC support systems. By leveraging their combined technical expertise, both companies are committed to advancing automation and efficiency in security evaluation and governance across businesses of all sizes, including SMEs.
