Learnings from the podcast
- Vendor Security Questionnaires are not enough because they are out of date a month after its filled. Continuous assessment is more important than one time vendor security questionnaire.
- Prioritization of vendors and their security is key to not get overwhelmed with massive number of vendors. it can be driven by business value & impact of a particular vendor. Categorization can be critical, important and nice to have.
- When it comes to procurement decisions, understand the cost vs value factor of the decision. Even though the decision is made by leadership or business, ultimately security is accountable for this.
