"We all rely on service providers to keep our businesses afloat. I get asked all the time,  'How do I know that this service provider is going to be careful with my data?' Service providers can elevate our risk, while at the same time giving us really important services that we need. "

When using service providers, managing your 3rd party risk can be a challenge. Tune in this week as Jen Stone (MCIS | CISSP | CISA | QSA) talks with Paul Poh (CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CIPP/US) about how we can best manage and minimize that 3rd party risk that often comes with using these service providers.

Listen to learn:
-Things to look for when choosing a service provider.
-Keeping your data secure with your service provider.
-Things you need to know about your own security.
