Evolving Compliance Strategies to Meet Changing Business Demands

High-Profile Data Breaches have placed a spotlight on the risk of cyber security breaches with vendors and subcontractors, expanding the need to have greater rigor in third party risk management and ongoing risk assessments. Maintaining an effective third-party risk management program doesn't happen overnight. It's a journey that involves continual learning, refinement and evolution.

And as a program matures over time, it results in the management of vendors and other third parties with fewer risks, lower costs, better performance and stronger compliance. Since every company is at a different place in their journey towards better vendor management, it's important to identify steps that you can follow as you mature your program, and to consider your vendor risk ecosystem and the data and services that can have an enormous impact on risk reduction. On this CPE accredited webinar our panel of experts will address some key steps to mature your third-party risk management program, including how to:

- Create a third-party risk-management maturity roadmap.
- Connect with enterprise systems to create a centralized data repository and enable seamless vetting activities across processes

Consumer demand is driving the corporate IT environment. Business demands for IT are changing rapidly — so too are the demands on IAM — resulting in the requirement to adopt emerging technologies (e.g., mobile and cloud computing, data loss prevention, and social media) earlier and more quickly. Scalability is critical for any business that wants to catalyze short- and long-term success. A flexible workflow for identity verification can help organizations of all sizes with limited time, resources, and funding to focus their efforts on initiatives that support positive growth. While your business might be conducting background checks today, it could have different verification needs in the future to ease onboarding friction, prevent data breaches, and demonstrate regulatory compliance.

It’s important to begin laying the groundwork now for a more sophisticated and intricate verification program so you can be proactive, not reactive, but what does a scalability strategy look like? In this CPE accredited panel webinar our experts will address how to create identity and credential verification workflows that can scale with your organization as it grows, including how to:

- Gain a better understanding of the digital identity landscape,
- Ensure accuracy of both data sources and verification records,
- Centralize verification of multiple data sources into a unified platform,
- Evaluate new developments like biometrics, AI, and blockchain, and how they can impact identity and data management,
- Save money in the long-term by laying the groundwork for adaptable online verification workflows,
- Adapt and respond to new regulations.

The current state of vendor risk management (VRM) is bleak. More than half of all information security breaches are caused by third-party vendors, and according to Deloitte 83% of today’s business leaders lack confidence in third party VRM processes. Given the growing complexities in accurately collecting and screening third-party data and the need for deeper due diligence, automation is key to a successful risk program. However, many corporations haven’t adopted automation in their third-party risk management programs.

The lack of automation adoption can be traced to a few core reasons. Disparate systems, out-of-date data, and inconsistent policies can all stifle a company’s ability to modernize their third-party risk management program, and companies often suffer from more than one of these. When applied effectively, automation can not only help prevent these roadblocks; it can also drive the efficiencies procurement and compliance leaders are looking for. Join this CPE accredited panel webinar as our expert panel address some key steps to automating third-party risk management, including how to:

-Manage an up-to-date vendor master to create one source of truth across the entire corporation,
-Leverage automation and machine learning to standardize data governance,
-Drive efficiencies and reduces costs, while ensuring the highest accuracy in your third-party risk management program.

Today’s increasing organizational complexity and evolving threat environment have made it more critical than ever for organizations to clearly identify their exposures, measure vulnerability risk, and quickly prioritize remediation efforts. Cyberattacks are often hidden from view under a mountain of alerts generated by security systems, giving attackers time to gain access to systems and seize valuable data.

To ensure their companies don't end up in the headlines for the wrong reasons, corporate governance, risk management, compliance management and other “lines of defense” functions need to rethink their security strategy and take an approach that looks at behavior and attack patterns. By conecting cybersecurity attack analytics with risk programs and GRC work streams, executives can increase visibility into the overall security risk of the organization which makes the investigation of application security events easy, and enables teams to mitigate and respond to real security threats quickly and decisively.

Join this CPE panel webinar for insights on achieving smarter GRC with CAA. We will share:

- Why traditional endpoint security is failing to see and stop attacks.
- How using attack analytics can stop cyberattacks now and in the future.
- Efficient ways to analyze events and prevent threats.
- How to move from looking back to real-time and forward-looking GRC monitoring.

The days of securing a well-defined perimeter around your organization are gone. The cloud, mobile technologies, the internet of things (IoT) and diverse user groups freely exchange data across digital ecosystems, network and economies. This fluidity, however, means that organizations must secure access at multiple points throughout the organization, or risk letting in intruders seeking to hijack data.

To manage the increasingly diverse digital landscape, IT and security managers need to move beyond usernames and passwords, and expand their use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to help provide secure and convenient access to the critical data and systems users need. On this webinar our panel of experts will address how secure authentication can help enable GRC across the digital ecosystem, and they will share tips on:

- Securing access at all points across applications, devices, users and environments.
- Sharing insights across security systems to strengthen security.
- Collecting and analyzing information to stop attacks.
- How MFA can transform secure access—to any application, from any device, anywhere, at any time.
- Strengthening identity assurance with privileged users.

Access control, a critical component of IT security compliance programs, ensures that organizations protect confidential information, like intellectual property and customer data. But your access management program can easily become outdated and static—especially if you rely on manual control testing and user access administration tasks.

By using robotics and process automation, or RPA, you can tackle some of the common challenges associated with access control programs. RPA works 24/7, reduces human error, and saves employees from manual, repetitive tasks. RPA might be the key to advancing your access control program.

Join this CPE webinar for insights into how you can reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve the effectiveness of your access control program with RPA. We will share:

- How to get started with an access control program.
- Ways to evaluate the right tools to automate processes at a task level, and align to your process automation strategy.
- Practical steps you can take to see value from advanced analytics in risk management, compliance, and continuous monitoring programs.
- How to embed governance, risk management, and controls into your enterprise’s mobilization and deployment of RPA, so you can catch issues before they arise.
