Businesses are expected to balance achieving innovation through initiatives that transform the organization with effective risk management. While this is nothing new, added challenges arise due to:

  • An increasingly large vendor ecosystem within which to manage risk.
  • A fragmented approach to risk management that separates cyber and IT risk from enterprise risk.
  • A rapidly growing number of threat actors and a larger attack surface.
