Third-Party Risk
Did you know? More than half of organizations experienced a third-party IT security incident in the last two years, according to a survey conducted by the CyberRisk Alliance — and of these incidents, 52% originated from a software vendor. These sobering statistics are part of a recent CRA research report, sponsored by AuditBoard, that surveyed over 200 security executives, directors, managers, and IT admins.

With third-party breaches continuing to escalate in velocity and impact, it’s no longer enough to secure internal assets; organizations must be doubly sure any sanctioned entity with network permissions does not become an unwitting conduit for malicious activity. However, managing third-party and supply chain threats remains a daunting task.
