A Day in the Life of a Risk Assessor — Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow Recording
Join seasoned practitioners from OneTrust as we explore how risk assessment has changed, where it stands today, and what the future will demand of risk professionals.
Over the past decade, the role of the risk assessor has transformed — rapidly, repeatedly, and now exponentially. What began as a discipline rooted in manual questionnaires and siloed assessments has evolved into a strategic function influencing enterprise decisions, budgets, and long-term planning. With AI and automation accelerating change even further, the next evolution of risk assessment is already underway.
In this thought-leadership conversation, we’ll examine:
Yesterday
- Manual, cybersecurity-centric processes that established the foundational practices of risk assessment.
- Programs that operated largely in silos with limited alignment to broader business strategy.
Today
- A broadened risk landscape supported by integrated ERM alignment and more mature, data-driven processes.
- Risk teams increasingly serving as strategic partners who inform budgets, priorities, and enterprise decisions.
Tomorrow
- AI and automation reshaping assessments end-to-end—from triage to evidence validation to continuous monitoring.
- Risk roles shifting toward advisory functions that help the business understand which risks to take and why.
