Abstract: Described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support predictive assessments of vendor risk. The described techniques provide for machine learning and modeling to produce predictive risk profiles for vendors (e.g., even without security profile data provided by the vendor). Various described techniques may also produce unique insights across an entire portfolio of third parties using instant, predictive risk assessment results. Predictive risk profiles predict how a given vendor will answer each question in a standardized assessment based on one or more parameters (e.g., firmographics), both outside-in data and inside-out data, and similar completed assessments stored on an exchange associated with the system.

Abstract: A closure is provided for a container having an externally threaded neck and a plurality of locking teeth. The closure has a first outer side wall, a second inner side wall, and projections within the outer side wall for engaging the locking teeth of the container, to prevent removal by children and the like. The outer side wall can be distorted to displace the locking projections, for opening the container. For forming a seal with the neck of a container, one or both of a textured finish on an annular sealing surface within the second inner side wall, and an internal sealing lip are provided. This eliminates the requirement for a separate sealing liner.
