Recommended Actions

  1. Request Cohere's current SOC 2 Type II report and bridge letter — contact their security team via https://cohere.com/security or through your enterprise account representative. Review the audit scope and observation period before documenting certification status in your vendor risk register.
  2. Request Cohere's Data Protection Addendum (DPA) and ask specifically about AI data handling: (1) whether customer data is used for model training and whether opt-out is available, (2) which third-party AI model providers process customer data, and (3) applicable data retention periods for inputs and outputs.
  3. Request Cohere's current subprocessor list — ask their legal or privacy team for this document and confirm whether they provide advance notice (at least 30 days) of subprocessor changes, as required under GDPR Article 28.

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Cohere a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Cohere safe to use as a vendor?+

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.

Does Cohere have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Cohere holds SOC 2. Rated Moderate Risk — No subprocessor page found. See all 5 findings →
Is Cohere FedRAMP authorized?+
FedRAMP authorization is relevant for government contractors evaluating AI platform platforms. Based on ThirdProof's assessment, Cohere is not currently listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace. Organizations with federal compliance requirements should verify this directly and consider alternative vendors with FedRAMP authorization where required.
Has Cohere had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly AI platform platforms like Cohere 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 Cohere on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for AI platform vendors. ThirdProof screens Cohere against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Cohere or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Cohere for vendor risk?+
Assessing Cohere as a AI platform 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.

Cohere 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 Cohere 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.
