Best Practices for Threat and Vulnerability Response & Emergency Assessments

It's not getting any easier. Every time we turn around there seems to be another attack or threat that demands our attention. While each event is unique, they all result in third-party risk management teams scrambling to ensure their organizations are protected. Rapid responses and emergency assessments can be knee-jerk, stressful and distracting. It doesn't have to be that way. Join us for a discussion on the best practices to responding to zero-day vulnerability attacks and conducting emergency assessments. We'll outline what's required to prepare in advance so you're ready to execute when the time comes. From establishing solid communication channels to leveraging automation, we'll cover the necessary steps and considerations for an effective response plan. Session attendees will learn:

  • • How to gain visibility into your entire vendor ecosystem and prepare in advance to reduce both reaction time and exposure to loss
  • • How to quickly identify which third parties require follow-on action based on each specific threat actor or vulnerability
  • • How quick-assess campaigns can automatically scope, distribute, and score responses
