Top Tips for Filling in Third-Party Due Diligence Gaps

Third-party risk professionals must prioritise holding vendors and partners accountable to internal cybersecurity standards to mitigate the risks posed by potential cyber-attacks. Building and maintaining resilient relationships with third parties—from the initial contracting phase through the partnership lifecycle—is critical to safeguarding data integrity and ensuring timely, transparent incident reporting. With increasing regulatory focus on cybersecurity, such as the EU’s updated Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS2) and the US Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), organisations must evaluate their vendors’ cybersecurity readiness and adopt proactive, efficient risk management processes to meet these heightened expectations.

This webinar will explore actionable strategies to establish and enforce strong cybersecurity practices across all third parties, fostering accountability throughout the third-party lifecycle. By identifying high-risk areas and implementing effective monitoring tools, third-party risk professionals can enhance their organisation's defence against vulnerabilities, protect sensitive data, and uphold operational resilience in an era of increasing cyber threats.

Learning Objectives:

- Gain comprehensive visibility into cybersecurity risks across your vendor network.
- Shift from reactive to proactive cyber risk management to align with CMMC and NIS2 regulatory standards.
- Position your third-party risk framework as a cornerstone of enterprise-wide compliance and resilience strategies.
- Recognize the value of an integrated supply chain approach to strengthen incident response capabilities and enhance operational resilience.
