Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
Risk tolerance, exposure visibility, board oversight — handling third-party risk is complicated but achievable with disciplined, precise governance.
Editorial Analysis
With NIS2 and DORA mandating documented third-party risk management, enterprises that lack structured vendor governance face both regulatory exposure and operational blind spots.
Formalise your vendor risk management programme with clear risk-tolerance thresholds, periodic reviews, and board-level reporting aligned to NIS2 requirements.
Structured third-party risk governance is no longer optional — NIS2 and DORA mandate it, and practical frameworks are available to close gaps.
