Hacker Hour: Vendor Review Walk Through

Description: We live in a world where nearly every business function can be outsourced to some type of service or cloud provider. Adopting a more proactive vendor management process is essential in enabling organizations to make better business and vendor related decisions. Although completing reviews and managing each vendor relationship can be a tedious task, if done properly an organization can see great benefits and are better positioned to deal with disruptions or cybersecurity issues.


Join SBS as we walk through the process of conducting a vendor review and discuss how organizations can structure their overall vendor management program.
