Scrimsher is currently chairing the Third Party Risk Management Working Group with the RH-ISAC , collaborating with approximately 30 other companies on defining a set of industry standards that they can implement for all of the third parties and the requirements to attain them .
“ It ' s everything – how do we determine what type of data we share with them ? How do we determine what level of network connectivity we provide to them ? How do we ensure that , when they have connectivity , we can track their identities to ensure we know who is accessing our systems or our data ? So we work very closely with other retail companies that we would typically consider competitors , but in the cybersecurity world , we ' re all partners .
“ We ' re all out there trying to help each other protect our customers and our data through setting and maintaining global standards for all of our vendors . That way , our supply chain providers – whether they ' re software supply chain or product supply chain – all know what to expect , and they can start building their systems to be as secure as the industry is looking for ,” explained Scrimsher .
