TPRM Incident Response in Widespread Breaches

Wednesday, June 10, 2026 | 11:00am-12:00pm ET
When a systemic cyber incident strikes, your actual attack surface is your entire vendor ecosystem. With attackers leveraging software dependencies and Nth-party sub-vendors to cause widespread disruption, passive annual questionnaires are no longer enough. Your Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) program must shift from static compliance to active incident response. In this fast-paced, 60-minute session, we strip away the fluff to deliver a battle-tested playbook for modern risk leaders. You will learn: • The Active Response Framework: TPRM’s exact role during a cascading incident, and how to manage the operational aftermath when a critical vendor goes dark. • High-Velocity Ad Hoc Vetting: When and how to trigger rapid, targeted vendor assessments without stalling operations. • Crisis Communication: Best practices for coordinating real-time communication between internal leaders (InfoSec, Legal, C-Suite) and impacted third parties. Join us to transform your TPRM program from a defensive checklist into an offensive resilience engine.
