Automating Your Third-Party Risk Management Program

Jul 25 / IT GRC Forum

Third-party vendors are essential to modern business operations, but they also introduce significant risk. Over half of all information security breaches originate from third-party vendors, and 83% of business leaders report a lack of confidence in their vendor risk management (VRM) processes. The increasing volume and complexity of vendor data, coupled with the need for thorough due diligence, make effective automation critical for any successful VRM program.


Many organizations struggle to implement automation due to fragmented systems, outdated data, and inconsistent policies. These challenges prevent companies from streamlining processes, achieving accurate risk assessments, and modernizing their third-party risk programs. Without automation, procurement, compliance, and security teams face inefficiencies, increased costs, and elevated risk exposure.


This webinar explores practical strategies to automate third-party risk management effectively. Attendees will learn how to maintain an up-to-date vendor master, leverage automation and machine learning to standardize data governance, reduce operational costs, improve accuracy, and drive efficiency across the VRM lifecycle, enabling organizations to confidently manage third-party risk.
