Januart 2022 Webinar 4: Risky Relationships: A Holistic View of Third-Party Risk Management

As 2021 winds down, organizations continue to face challenges across multiple fronts. Financial instability, a Great Resignation, a digital transformation, demands for conscious organizations, and a climate crisis, all in the backdrop of a continuing global pandemic. This makes third-party risk management (TPRM) both a difficult and necessary function within a business as more organizations move to a remote-first culture and off-load critical services to third parties. With that off-load comes additional risk as third parties remain a primary attack vector for hackers and an increasing bearer of risk for an organization.

During this webinar, we’ll address the current state of third-party risk management, provide a high-level framework for building out a TPRM program, and identify ways to address new third-party risks.
