Vendor risk management (VRM) is increasingly critical to protecting organizations that outsource products and processes to vendors. VRM helps to protect the organization’s assets while maintaining efficiency. Organizations need to create a VRM program that can scale business growth and remain relevant despite the evolving risk landscape in order to be proactive.

To help you learn to create a VRM that reduces risk to your organization, ISACA and BitSight present the “How to Create a Sustainable Vendor Risk Management Program” webinar. It will discuss how to create a VRM that allows you to make quick and effective security risk decisions, automate continuous monitoring of cybersecurity risk, enable third-party collaboration and reduce the organization’s risk of data breach. This webinar takes place on 30 January at 11AM CST (UTC -6 hours). ISACA members can earn 1 continuing professional education (CPE) hour by attending this webinar and completing a related survey.

Olcott served as cybersecurity attorney to the US Senate Commerce Committee and the US House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee.
