ISMG and Deutsche Bank Partner to Launch Global Banking Series on Third-Party Mandated Applications

Collaborative Three-Part Series to Address TPMA Challenges in the Financial Sector

PRINCETON, NJ, UNITED STATES, December 13, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- ISMG, a global leader in cybersecurity education and media, is delighted to announce a strategic collaboration with Deutsche Bank, one of the world’s leading banks and a pioneer in the financial services industry, to deliver the first edition of a global banking series. The initiative is aimed at supporting banks and financial institutions in addressing the complexities of third-party mandated applications, or TPMAs.

In today’s interconnected banking environment, TPMAs have emerged as indispensable tools for data submission, client integration and regulatory adherence. Recent studies found that 98% of organizations have a relationship with a third party that has been breached. The ability to navigate these applications effectively is not just a competitive advantage but a necessity.

“This initiative with Deutsche Bank marks the beginning of a broader industry movement toward greater transparency and collaboration,” said Sanjay Kalra, CEO of ISMG. “By uniting CISOs from leading institutions around the world, we are not only taking a step to address the challenges of third-party mandated applications but also setting a new standard for operational integrity and trust in the financial sector.”

ISMG’s partnership with Deutsche Bank builds on its rich heritage and deep expertise in cybersecurity and financial services. BankInfoSecurity, ISMG’s first publication, has been a trusted resource for the BFSI sector, delivering critical insights into regulatory trends, emerging threats and innovative solutions for over a decade.

Led by ISMG’s in-house editorial team, the series is structured around three core sessions, each focusing on a critical aspect of TPMAs:

• Regulatory Mandated Applications
• Client-Mandated Applications
• Market-Driven and Partner Bank TPMAs

The series is set to offer peer-to-peer conversations in a Chatham House environment and create an open dialogue for collaborative problem-solving. This unique setting will allow CISOs, CROs, CIOs and other executive leaders from global financial services institutions to benchmark strategies, address regulatory complexities and improve client onboarding frameworks across various classification criteria.

“While third-party mandated applications is not a new topic, the number of applications has quadrupled in the last couple of years and represents up to 22% of our overall portfolio,” said Osama Jamaleddine, CISO of corporate banking at Deutsche Bank. “With the pressure this puts on financial institutions, it’s important that we work together to ensure that we have a good understanding about our liability and tailor our controls accordingly.”

Central to this initiative is ISMG’s CyberEd.io platform – a global education and training hub that complements the banking series by providing a foundation for ongoing industry education. Designed to serve the community, the platform provides cybersecurity courses and expert insights to deepen the understanding of the challenges and strategies outlined throughout the series.

“This is a step toward CyberEd.io’s mission of providing a world-class education on a range of cybersecurity topics to professionals at all levels customized based on their personal and organizational needs,” Kalra said. “We look forward to building on the success of this initiative to support other global organizations facing challenges similar to those of Deutsche Bank.”

By uniting CISOs from leading institutions around the world, ISMG and Deutsche Bank are not only taking a step toward addressing the challenges of TPMAs but also establishing a new standard for operational integrity and trust in the financial sector.
