In today's hyper connected digital landscape, organizations are heavily reliant on third-party partnerships to drive business growth and innovation. However, this dependency comes with significant risks. According to Gartner, breaches involving third parties cost 40% more than internal breaches, highlighting the critical need for robust Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM).

On this webinar we will explore the essentials of developing a cyber resilience strategy that balances trust and risk mitigation with business objectives. By leveraging TPRM, organizations can effectively reduce, share, or transfer risks associated with third-party engagements, securing their operations and maintaining stakeholder confidence. Attendees will gain insights into:

• The impact of third-party breaches on organizational cyber resilience.
• How to conduct comprehensive risk assessments and due diligence for third-party vendors.
• Best practices for onboarding and monitoring third-party relationships, including regulatory compliance.
• The role of technology and automation in strengthening Third-Party Risk Management strategies.
