Mitigating Risk With Threat Intelligence
DARKReading, Wednesday, July 5th, 2023
When it comes to enterprise risk, third-party cybersecurity risks have increased substantially in recent years. By implementing an effective third-party risk management program, organizations can mitigate much of their risk and better protect themselves from attacks that emanate from third parties. The key word here is "effective."
Dark Reading's latest special report, "How to Use Threat Intelligence to Mitigate Third-Party Risk," digs into how threat intelligence can be implemented to attain a continuous risk assessment on partners, suppliers, vendors, contractors, and other third parties.
Third-party threat intelligence helps security teams move beyond capturing a point-in-time view of security and regulatory compliance maturity and more accurately assess the risk over time. The convergence of threat intelligence and third-party risk management (TPRM) programs can ensure that third parties don't drastically increase the risk of data breaches or other cybersecurity events and, should such an incident occur, can help to minimize its impact.
