BitSight automated support

BitSight is one of the most common third-party portals for hosting security questionnaires. Luckily, Conveyor's Browser Extension has fully automated support for BitSight questionnaires, meaning you can:

  • Import an entire BitSight questionnaire in a single click;
  • Export ConveyorAI's answers back to the BitSight questionnaire in a single click;
  • Sync any edits that you make in BitSight back to Conveyor in a single click

Creating a questionnaire

With the Conveyor Browser Extension open on any BitSight questionnaire, select a page that contains any questions on it, and select "Working on a New Questionnaire."

  • You can also select or search for an existing questionnaire if the questionnaire has already been created in Conveyor.

You'll then be prompted to provide basic questionnaire metadata. If you have questions about how to interpret these fields, see Creating a questionnaire.

Adding questions

Once you've created the questionnaire in the Conveyor Browser Extension, the extension will decorate all detected questions on the page with green dotted lines. Click "Import questions" near any question or click "Scan for new questions" (the camera icon) at the bottom of the extension to begin the import.

ConveyorAI will then start answering questions in the browser extension itself.

Reviewing and editing answers

Once questions are imported and ConveyorAI has begun to answer them, the experience is similar as to what's provided in the web app. This includes:

Furthermore, all activities are kept in-sync between the extension and the web app. After importing the questions, you could switch to the web app to edit the answers and work with collaborators, and then return to the extension to export the answers back into BitSight.

Filling in the portal

Once you've reviewed ConveyorAI's answers and edited them to your liking, you can now fill them back into BitSight with a single click. Hitting "Fill & Next" will paste the answer to the focused question back into BitSight. You can also click "Fill unanswered questions" (the paint bucket icon) to fill the entire page at once. With the "All Pages" option selected, Conveyor will auto navigate to all pages with questions and populate answers to them too.

Conditional logic

Some BitSight questionnaires include conditional logic, such that as you answer a question, a new question will spawn. If this happens, just click "Scan for new questions," and any newly-spawned questions will be added to your Conveyor questionnaire in the correct order.

Additional pages

BitSight questionnaires often span multiple pages/sections. You can either scan each page manually, or use the "
All Pages" option on both Scan/Export to let the extension auto navigate through all sections for you.

Unsupported question types

BitSight has some question types that are not currently supported by Conveyor's Browser Extension, such as "select all that apply"-type questions. Conveyor will still import these questions and ConveyorAI will answer them, but you will have to then check the boxes in BitSight yourself to complete the question.
