The biggest challenge faced by organisations when it comes to third-party risk management:

- Vendor Lock-in
- Lack of visibility and control
- Complexity of the third-party ecosystem
- Regulatory and compliance requirements
- Lack of resources and expertise to manage 3rd party risk
- Cultural and language differences
- Changing political landscape (eg. Russia based 3rd party vendors)

To address these challenges, organisations need to establish robust 3rd party risk management programs that include policies, risk assessments, contractual obligations, monitoring mechanisms, exit strategy, and ongoing communication with third parties
