In recent years\, there has been a tectonic shift in how enterprises operate. Remote working has forced organizations to extend their physical and logical boundaries\, while geopolitical developments have forced them to examine supply chain resilience.   \nThreat actors are hunting for the weakest supply-chain links to exploit an organization. Disruptions—geopolitical developments\, natural disasters\, pandemics\, cyberattacks—and risk factors that impact a supply chain ecosystem can have catastrophic consequences\, creating a domino effect that extends to society at large.  \nWhile organizations continue to reap strategic advantages by utilizing third-party services\, risk exposure increases concurrently. Further\, there is a growing emphasis on managing risk in the supply chain\, and it is a strategic priority discussed at executive levels.   \nThe proposed three sessions will help set the context on third party risk management and how organizations are addressing the risk and challenges. We will also delve into contemporary and niche practices of third party risk management such as continuous monitoring of third parties and focused assessment of third party SaaS solutions. We will wrap up the series by discussing some practical ideas that one can adapt to help establish or mature their existing third party risk management programs.  \n Speakers \nMedha Grover is an Associate Director within the Digital Trust practice at KPMG in India.
