Since hiring suppliers effectively increases an organization’s attack surface, a thorough cyber risk assessment process must be put in place to check third-party cyber posture and remediate any cyber gaps. Failure to do so can result in hefty regulatory fines, legal feels, lost business and reputational damage.
