Vendor Security Practices: Turn the Rocks Over Early and Often

Too often security is reviewed at the end of the vendor selection process. It ends up blocking projects moving forward as you identify issues with already selected vendors. Reverse the process with security considered early and business teams can avoid investing precious time on unsuitable vendor candidates and get rankings for suitable ones. This session will show you how using real examples.
