Episode 17: Third-Party Risk Management

from Certified: The CISSP Audio Course Hosted by Dr. Jason Edwards

Today’s organizations rely heavily on vendors, contractors, and service providers—but each relationship introduces potential risks. In this episode, we cover the principles of third-party risk management, including due diligence, contractual controls, and ongoing monitoring. You’ll learn how to assess a vendor’s security posture, enforce security requirements through service-level agreements (SLAs), and respond when third-party weaknesses are discovered. This topic is increasingly important as supply chain attacks and vendor-based breaches become more common. Managing third-party risk is a core responsibility for any CISSP-certified leader.
