Executive Summary

AI-generated analysis for ClickUp

ClickUp (clickup.com) is a well-established SaaS project management platform assessed at Risk Tier 4 (Low Risk) with 80% confidence.

Area Requiring Attention

The vendor presents a strong technical security posture: zero malicious flags across 94 threat intelligence engines, an A+ SSL/TLS grade, clean IP reputation, and no adverse media signals in the past 12 months. ClickUp publicly claims seven security and privacy certifications — including SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA compliance — all of which are vendor-attested on its security page but could not be independently verified through a public registry. For a retail or e-commerce organization, the primary outstanding action is obtaining audited certification documentation directly from ClickUp and ensuring a formal Data Processing Agreement is in place to satisfy GDPR and CCPA obligations, as well as PCI-DSS 4.0 Requirement 12.8 third-party service provider (TPSP) documentation requirements.

Independence Statement

All evidence in this report was independently sourced from external data providers without vendor participation, notification, or review.

Steps to address findings for ClickUp

  1. 1

    Request ClickUp's SOC 2 Type II audit report: email security@clickup.com referencing your vendor risk management program, or check https://trust.clickup.com for a downloadable version. Specify the audit period dates and confirm the report covers the systems and services your organization will use. Target completion: within 30 days of onboarding.

  2. 2

    Obtain ISO 27001, ISO 27017, and ISO 27018 certificates: ask ClickUp's security team for the certificate documents, including the issuing certification body (e.g., BSI, Bureau Veritas, DNV) and validity dates. Verify the certificate scope covers the ClickUp services in your deployment. Target: within 30 days.

  3. 3

    Execute a Data Processing Agreement (DPA): download ClickUp's standard DPA from https://clickup.com/dpa or request a signed copy from their legal/compliance team. Confirm it satisfies GDPR Article 28 requirements and designates ClickUp as a CCPA 'service provider' with written prohibitions on selling or sharing your users' personal data.

  4. 4

    Conduct manual review of ClickUp's subprocessor list at https://trust.clickup.com/subprocessors: identify all subprocessors processing your organization's data, note their jurisdictions, and confirm each has an appropriate data transfer mechanism (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses for non-EU transfers). Raise any subprocessors in high-risk jurisdictions with your legal team.

  5. 5

    Complete manual sanctions screening: using your organization's sanctions screening tool or a compliance service, run 'ClickUp' and its legal entity names against OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, and UN sanctions lists to compensate for the automated screening gap identified in this assessment.

  6. 6

    Document ClickUp in your PCI-DSS TPSP register: per PCI-DSS 4.0 Requirement 12.8.5, record which PCI controls ClickUp manages versus which remain your organization's responsibility. For a project management SaaS tool with medium data access and no direct cardholder data processing, the shared responsibility documentation should confirm that cardholder data is not stored or transmitted through ClickUp. Retain this assessment alongside written agreements for QSA fieldwork.

Data Coverage Notes

Some data sources may have had limited availability during this assessment. This does not reflect negatively on the vendor.

  • Sanctions and watchlist screening was unavailable during this investigation. Manual sanctions screening against OFAC, EU, and UN consolidated lists is recommended before finalizing vendor onboarding.
  • Web archive history data was unavailable from one supplementary source. This does not materially affect the risk assessment, as domain age and establishment are well-supported by WHOIS data (registered 2001) and high web traffic rankings.
  • The subprocessor page at trust.clickup.com was identified but no structured subprocessor entries could be extracted due to page formatting. Individual subprocessor identity, jurisdiction, and risk profile could not be assessed. Manual review of this page is recommended.
  • External cyber risk scoring was not available for this assessment. The technical security posture narrative relies on direct domain analysis, SSL/TLS grading, and threat intelligence engine data.
  • No industry or headcount firmographic data was returned from company intelligence sources, limiting context on ClickUp's organizational scale and structure beyond what is publicly known.

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending ClickUp a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is ClickUp safe to use as a vendor?+
ClickUp is a project management vendor that handles organizational data. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see ClickUp's full risk profile.
Does ClickUp have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — ClickUp holds SOC 2 + 7 other certs. Rated High Risk — Multiple known CVEs detected. See all 6 findings →
Has ClickUp had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly project management platforms like ClickUp that handle organizational data. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is ClickUp on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for project management vendors. ThirdProof screens ClickUp against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If ClickUp or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess ClickUp for vendor risk?+
Assessing ClickUp as a project management vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and applicable industry standards compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

ClickUp is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates ClickUp across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
