Where are the third (and fourth) parties?
The jagged edge of vendor risk management.

WEBINAR ON DEMAND
Duration: 33 minutes


Third-party vendors play a critical role in business operations—but every additional partner introduces new risks. And the challenge doesn’t stop there: those vendors often rely on their own vendors, creating a fourth-party web of access that’s harder to see and even harder to control. Without a clear strategy, these hidden connections can open the door to compliance failures, operational disruption, and cybersecurity threats.

In this session, Imprivata experts Maria Phillips and Russell Dowdell share how organizations can strengthen their vendor access strategy and close the gaps that often go unnoticed. They’ll break down the legal, contractual, technical, and operational considerations that matter most, and provide practical guidance to help you build a resilient third- and fourth-party risk management program. You’ll learn how to:

  • Identify and mitigate risks across extended vendor ecosystems
  • Strengthen governance practices to safeguard sensitive access
  • Implement strategies to reduce vulnerabilities and improve compliance
