AI, Deregulation, and the Case for Building Real Risk Infrastructure (opens the original)
Read excerpt
From AI that acts without explicit approval to a regulatory environment that's pulling back on exams, Michael Berman — CEO and founder of Ncontracts — joins Rafael DeLeon to make the case that both forces are pointing financial organizations in the same direction: toward more risk, not less, and toward infrastructure that has to hold without an examiner asking for it.
Why the Basics Still Decide Everything: A CISO on Vendors, AI, and Resilience (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ncontracts Chief Information Security Officer Clay Carter joins Rafael DeLeon to unpack why the security failures hurting financial organizations most often start with a trusted vendor, not a direct attack. Carter, who built security programs at General Electric, Nielsen, and Xylem before joining Ncontracts, breaks down where vendor questionnaires fall short, what responsible AI governance requires, and why advanced security techniques mean nothing without the basics in place.
What's the Purpose of Third-Party Risk Management? A Practitioner's Answer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most vendor management programs at financial institutions are built to satisfy an examiner. Michael Carpenter, VP of Risk Management at Ncontracts and author of The Upside of Third-Party Risk Management , spent 30 years building third-party risk management programs at community banks, credit unions, and large financial institutions — and in this episode of Ncast, he explains what that experience revealed about why so many TPRM programs fail to deliver real business value.
