Guarding Against Increased Cyber-Risk in the Age of COVID-19
This session will focus on the inherent increase in cyber-risks created by the COVID-19 pandemic (i.e. an entirely remote workforce!) and how to protect against them.
If managing spend is valuable exercise (it is! – Ardent’s research has quantified this in multiple research studies over the years), managing the team that manage the is even more valuable. With the vast majority of supply management professionals working in an entirely new workspace – their homes (most large procurement teams, like most of the corporate world), we need to make sure that the teams remain active and productive. With a newly remote workforce, there are a huge number of issues that managers must tackle for the first time.
In a discussion relevant for every business dealing with a newly remote workforce and/or a global supply chain, leading global cyber-security expert, Dr. Marcus K. Rogers, Ph.D., CISSP, CCCI, DFCP, will share his views and strategies on what supply management leaders can do to better understand and manage these risks.
