Information Security / Cybersecurity

Key TPRM Challenges for InfoSec Teams

• Staying ahead of the cybersecurity curve: Every day, novel cyber threats creep into the digital space. However, not all third parties have the sufficient expertise or robust systems in place to detect and counteract these threats. This gap in their defenses can pose a significant risk to your business continuity.
• Managing a surge in workload: The exponential growth of data, the shift towards cloud computing, and an increase in regulatory compliance demands necessitate comprehensive risk assessments across a larger pool of third parties. But without a corresponding increase in resources, the pressure on your infosec personnel amplifies.
• Navigating the complex regulatory landscape: Compliance management across various jurisdictions can be daunting due to specific local regulations. For instance, several regions/countries enforce their unique data privacy and data sovereignty rules, which further complicates the scenario, especially in a constantly evolving regulatory environment.
• Dealing with third parties’ lack of investment in security: Notably, many third parties fail to prioritize investments in security infrastructure and resources, which can potentially expose your business to cyber risks.

Understanding these challenges is the first step towards addressing them. Now, let’s explore how ProcessUnity can effectively mitigate these risks and bolster your third-party risk posture.
