TEKsystems Third Party Info Security Risk Consultant in Chicago, Illinois
Description
The Third-Party Cyber Assurance (TPCA) function within Global Information Security is responsible for oversight of third-party security programs, including assessing third party security programs and maximizing protections for all aspects of security for the third party landscape. The TPCA assessment team member will assist in assessment scope determination, meeting with enterprise vendor manager and vendor to prepare them for the assessment, documentation collection (e.g. TruSight or vendor provided policies/procedures) and preparation of assessment work-papers. The primary responsibility will be to ensure each third party is prepared for the assessment and gather an understanding of the third party security environment; you’ll meet with Enterprise Vendor Managers and Third Parties and act as single point of contact to prepare the vendor for the assessment and answer detailed questions. You will talk with the Third Parties security team to understand control environment, control strength and health and review information security policies/procedures for completeness. Based upon your meetings, you will populate the assessment workpapers with your information for the third-party assessors to document gaps and determine remediation approaches.
GIS needs to support a change led by Global Third-Party Procurement to onboard 1,300 FLU managed Third Parties into their Program. These third parties currently fall outside the scope of the current GTPP Program, and are not supported with TPCA assessments. TPCA will need to hire additional staff to execute the assessment for the newly added third parties, per the requirement that once a Third Party is loaded into the GEP contract system an Assessment is required within 6 months. GTPP is onboarding in January 2025.
