In today’s hyperconnected enterprise, your cybersecurity risk doesn’t end at the firewall—it extends to every vendor, supplier, and partner in your digital ecosystem. Yet many organizations struggle to gain visibility into third-party risk, relying on outdated methods that can’t keep pace with modern threats.

This session explores how leading organizations are leveraging machine learning, threat intelligence, and continuous monitoring to transform their third-party risk management (TPRM) programs from reactive check-the-box exercises into proactive, intelligence-driven strategies. You’ll learn how advanced technologies are enabling security teams to identify high-risk vendors before they become the weak link—and how TPRM is evolving into a critical pillar of enterprise resilience.

Whether you’re already managing vendor risk or just starting to explore the issue, this session will provide the business case, practical frameworks, and technology insights you need to elevate your security posture.

In today’s rapidly evolving security landscape, organizations face the challenge of managing a wide array of tools across endpoints, identities, and networks. While each tool serves a critical purpose, they often operate in isolation, creating silos that obscure visibility and expose vulnerabilities. This session will address how the fragmentation of security systems and data increases attack surfaces and how integrating a unified cyber asset management approach can significantly reduce attack exposure.

Join us as we explore how security professionals can move beyond disconnected tools to leverage a single, comprehensive view of their assets and threat exposures. We’ll highlight practical steps and present a preview of an end-to-end solution designed to break down silos, provide full cyber asset visibility, and enable a more holistic approach to minimizing security risks.

As technology continues to evolve, managing disparate security systems will remain a pressing challenge. This session will offer actionable insights to security professionals looking to streamline their approach and safeguard their organizations from the growing complexities of cyber threats.
