At the 2024 SECURITY 500 Conference panel “The Weakest Link: Strengthening Security in Third-Party Relationships,” security leaders will discuss the risks associated with third-party relationships and offer strategies for managing them. The panel will discuss how as organizations come to rely more heavily on third-party vendors, the greater these risks will become. Considering the potential for third-parties to become an enterprise’s weakest link, panelists will provide advice for managing third-party vendors and associated risks. 

The panel discussion will take place in Washington, D.C. on November 18, 2024 as part of the SECURITY 500 Conference, a one-day security executive event hosted by Security magazine.
