Third-Party and Vendor Risk Management

This critical course provides a disciplined, structured approach to managing the risks introduced by external partners, vendors, and service providers. **Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM)** is essential as organizations increasingly rely on outsourced services, which can introduce risks related to cyber security, compliance, and operational failure. Participants will learn to implement a robust TPRM lifecycle, from due diligence and contract negotiation to continuous monitoring and termination. The focus is on establishing clear risk ownership, setting appropriate control expectations, and minimizing regulatory and reputational exposure inherent in vendor relationships.
