Most organizations’ risk management programs have room for improvement, especially when it comes to third-party risk. Understanding third-party risk management best practices can help organizations improve their risk program and reduce their overall risk. To help organizations improve their third-party risk practices, ISACA and ProcessUnity will present the “Third-Party Risk Management: Best Practices for an Effective and Efficient Program” webinar. This webinar will take place on 27 February at 11AM CST (UTC -6 hours). ISACA members who attend this webinar will earn 1 hour of continuing professional education (CPE).

Ed Thomas, vice president of marketing at ProcessUnity, will lead this webinar and will discuss how to quickly onboard third parties while reducing the risk associated with them. Those who attend this webinar will learn how to calculate inherent risk, how to improve vendor response rates and submission quality, and how to use external content to assist in ongoing vendor monitoring. Thomas will also explain how assessment processes can leverage industry-standard questionnaires to improve an organization’s third-party risk management process.
