About Third Party Threat Hunting™
Cybersecurity and Third Party Risk (Third Party Threat Hunting)
The supply chain has come under increasing attack in the last year, with the SolarWinds and other attacks by Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) it is clear the bad actors have weaponized the supply chain: if they cannot get to their intended targets directly, they will exploit the weak links in the third and fourth party trusted relationships. The book will provide a reference on how to create a third party risk management program that places cybersecurity at the forefront with techniques and programs to lower the risk to organizations significantly.
The book is available for pre-order at Amazon and the Wiley websites.

Why are Third Parties so Risky?
From Home Depot to Cognizant, third parties (vendors) have too often shown themselves as the weakest link in security to firms. Not only does this lead to financial losses, but reputation loss can last years or drive the business out of the market.
