It’s highly probable that, at some point, organisations that affiliate with outside providers will eventually have to deal with an operational interruption resulting from a third-party related issue. However, the risks involved in partnering with outsiders are many and complex. International orders have been ripped down. Technology has improved the way businesses communicate. Easy access to data and information enables the media to report on the business news before a business can properly respond. And the markets are quick to form opinions based on a 24\/7 on-demand news cycle. The potential liabilities have been ratcheted up several notches. More than ever, managing the third party risk is key to businesses’ survival.<\/p>\n
The result of this increased liability is problematic. Business litigation has skyrocketed. Corporate reputations are constantly being assaulted. Business strategies are forever shifting. Board members are becoming increasingly subjected to intense scrutiny from outside critics. And a highly educated market responds immediately with their pocketbooks.<\/span><\/p>\n VIEW 3PRM BROCHURE<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Recent data breaches at Fortune 500 companies such as JPMorgan Chase, Apple iCloud, Home Depot, and Target raise serious concerns about the private sector’s information security and third-party risk management practices.
