Your security is only as strong as your supply chain, and regulators now expect you to prove you manage it. NIS2 and DORA both put third-party oversight squarely on the board's agenda. I help you build a third-party risk capability that reduces real risk without drowning your team in questionnaires.
What's included: - Design or enhancement of your third-party risk management programme - Supplier security assessment frameworks with proportionate tiering, so effort follows risk - Cloud and SaaS security reviews - Security requirements for contracts and procurement - Critical supplier oversight aligned to NIS2 and DORA expectations - Concentration risk and exit planning for key providers - Ongoing monitoring approaches that scale Deliverables typically include a TPRM framework and policy, assessment templates and tiering model, a prioritised view of your current supplier risk, and board-level reporting on supply chain exposure.
Why me: over 20 years of security leadership, former Group CISO of a global law firm managing hundreds of supplier relationships, CISSP and CISM. I have built and run third-party security programmes in regulated, multi-jurisdictional environments.
Advisory support scoped to your supply chain: TPRM programme design, supplier assessment frameworks and tiering, cloud and SaaS reviews, contract security requirements, NIS2 and DORA third-party oversight, and board reporting on supply chain exposure.
From a focused framework build to ongoing supplier assurance support.
