# Findings from the Ponemon Data Risk in Third-Party Ecosystem Study

**Featured Speakers:** Dr. Larry Ponemon, founder of Ponemon Institute; Kelly White, founder of RiskRecon, a Mastercard Company  
**Date:** Tuesday, September 27, 2022  
**Time:** 12:00pm - 1:00pm ET

Join us for a live webinar where Dr. Larry Ponemon and RiskRecon founder Kelly White discuss the findings from our new study, "Data Risk in the Third-Party Ecosystem." In this report, we surveyed over 1,000 IT security professionals to learn how these firms are doing when it comes to managing and mitigating risk from their third, fourth, and Nth parties. 

Our speakers will cover many key topics from the report, including:

- Strategic shortfalls in third-party risk management governance
- The realities of today’s third-party risk management programs
- Key factors impacting the likelihood of a data breach
