RubinBrown Presents: Crowdstrike and Beyond: Re-examining Third Party Risk for Security Vendors

When:  Oct 30, 2024 from 08:30 to 09:30 (CT)
Associated with  Saint Louis Chapter

The St. Louis ISACA Chapter is proud to host an in person Breakfast and Learning Event with our partners and fellow ISACA members RubinBrown. The exciting discussion will be headlined by experts from RubinBrown on one of the most significant incidents of recent memory - CrowdStrike 2024. 

Topic:

The Crowdstrike Incident of 2024 was unique in that it wasn't as much a supply chain attack but a critical vendor failure for corporations and system administrators on a global scale. In a world where patching has become such a major part of IT Governance and Security, how do you reasonably work testing of Security Vendor Changes into your current patch management process? Where does management of third party risk fit into change management programs - especially programs that reside within Ring 0 of an OS. As practitioners of Governance and Risk, how do we deal with these unknowns in the wake of an incident of this magnitude?

Specific topics will include: 

  1. In light of the CrowdStike incident, what steps should organizations be taking to practice or prepare for future strikes or failures as part of their risk management practices?
  2. How do we balance fast patching of 0 day vulnerabilities with testing of third party security patches?
  3. How do contracts with mega-vendors like CrowdStrike address these failures and the damage they can cause?
  4. Is there a way to balance visibility into the vendor’s process while maintaining needed operational security?
  5. How do these risks affect fourth-party connections- is there visibility into who critical third party partners are using as security vendors?
