Five steps to Third-Party Risk Management

No matter how you decide to address TPRM, there are five essential steps that will go a long way in minimizing risk.

  1. Identify – The first step is determining which companies you do business with that could bring about any type of risk. An understanding of this third-party ecosystem is critical.
  2. Classify – Taking a risk-based approach, you’ll need to identify how much risk each third-party places on your organization based upon data, system access, and service provided.
  3. Assess – Next, the security posture of the third parties you do business with must be evaluated. Depending on the nature of your organization, you’ll have varying levels of assurance based upon third-party risk.
  4. Manage Risk – Here, you’ll outline steps to put policies in place and decide how remediation should be addressed. Basically, you’re asking whether to accept or avoid risks.
  5. Monitor – The last step involves the continuous monitoring of third parties to ensure they meet contractual obligations and sustain their security posture.
