Leaders from Archer and Shared Assessments will share insights on how third-party risk management (TPRM) can drive a resilient business model. TPRM is often perceived as a checkbox exercise driven by regulatory requirements and internal protocols. Organizations may view it as an important risk and compliance function but often allocate just enough attention and resources to keep it running. Yet TPRM holds far more potential when we move beyond the standard approach. When fully leveraged, it becomes a powerful tool for shaping strategic decisions and enhancing long-term performance. It can reveal critical insights into the value chain, highlight emerging risks, and uncover opportunities for growth and innovation. Watch this webinar to learn about: • The need to expand TPRM programs beyond basic compliance requirements. • The strategic advantages of integrating TPRM into enterprise risk management and long-term planning. • Improved decision-making and stronger operational risk management enabled by unlocking the potential of a comprehensive TPRM approach.

Back by popular demand, this Product Forum takes a fresh look at the Vendor Risk Management Maturity Model (VRMMM)–a cornerstone tool for evaluating and advancing third-party risk programs. Whether you're new to the model or ready to take your assessment to the next level, this session will walk you through the latest applications and real-world insights. Developed with the support of industry leaders, the VRMMM enables organizations to benchmark their third-party risk management (TPRM) practices, assess program maturity, and create a clear, actionable roadmap for improvement. We'll also highlight how the VRMMM supports investment justification, program tracking over time, and even external use cases like M&A due diligence. Join us to explore how this powerful tool continues to evolve alongside your program needs.

Join us for an engaging Member Forum Call where we'll explore how AI and automation are transforming Third Party Risk Management (TPRM). Our discussion will highlight practical use cases, including leveraging AI to parse security documentation and populate SIG assessments, as well as implementing AI-powered chatbots to streamline the intake process for business owners. This conversation will provide valuable insights into how AI can improve efficiency, reduce vendor burden, and enhance overall risk assessment processes. Whether you’re just starting to explore AI or actively implementing solutions, this session will offer actionable strategies to help you optimize your TPRM program.

The work never ends. Every year, we onboard more third parties. And every year, our assessment workload gets worse. More resources to help? Not going to happen. Sound familiar? You’re not alone. We have been at this process for years, but it continues to get worse for your team and the people in your company that rely on your third parties.

It doesn't have to be that way. It's time the flip the script and cut back on assessment questionnaires. Join us for a live webcast to learn how the newest risk exchange models are eliminating 80% of questionnaire requests with data. Our team of experts will outline how to:

- Instantly perform inherent risk analysis on your entire vendor portfolio
- Incorporate real-time risk data into your process to reduce questionnaire requests
- Map your questionnaire and controls to industry-standard frameworks or threat profiles to get the information you need with fewer questions
- Access assessment data on large, hard-to-assess third parties that don't respond to you
- Monitor 100% of your portfolio -- not just your critical vendors

TPRM doesn't have to be the most painful process in your company. Join us and start your program's evolution.

Modern third-party risk management (TPRM) programs do more than just mitigate risk or check a compliance box—they create measurable business value. But many TPRM teams are set up to fail with a reactive, resource-intensive approach. In this session, you’ll learn how to flip that script with streamlined, value-generating TPRM that supports business resilience and growth. We’ll explore how:

- AI-powered, automated vendor risk assessments make your team more effective at identifying and mitigating risk in a fraction of the time
- Modern TPRM moves away from lengthy questionnaires toward insight-rich, on-demand security data
- Greater efficiency leaves you with extra resources that can be re-allocated to business-critical tasks

If you’ve ever been called a “cost center” or “necessary evil” (or if you just want more time back in your day), this is the session for you!

In today's complex risk landscape, organizations must effectively assess and manage third-party risks to safeguard their operations and data. The Shared Assessments Program offers two pivotal tools to streamline this process: the Standardized Information Gathering (SIG) questionnaire and the Standardized Control Assessment (SCA) procedures. This webinar will delve into how the SCA complements the SIG, forming a comprehensive "trust but verify" approach to third-party risk management. Attendees will gain insights into: Understanding the SIG and SCA: An overview of each tool's purpose, structure, and application in evaluating vendor risk. Alignment and Integration: Strategies for integrating SCA procedures with SIG responses to validate vendor-provided information and ensure robust risk assessments. Practical Implementation: Best practices for scoping assessments, conducting evaluations, and utilizing findings to enhance your organization's third-party risk posture. Join us to learn how leveraging the synergy between the SIG and SCA can lead to more efficient and effective third-party risk management, ultimately strengthening your organization's resilience against emerging threats.
