⚠️ If a risk belongs to “everyone,” it usually belongs to no one.

One of the simplest ways to strengthen accountability is the Named Human Rule:
Every material risk should have a clearly identified person who owns it.

Not a department.
Not a committee.
Not “the business.”
A named human being.

Why it matters:
✨ ownership drives follow-through
✨ escalation becomes clearer
✨ decisions happen faster
✨ accountability becomes measurable

Risk registers often look complete on paper but weak in practice when ownership is vague.

A strong risk owner should know:
📌 what the risk is
📌 why it matters
📌 what controls exist
📌 what action is needed if exposure changes

Risk ownership does not mean carrying the risk alone. It means being clearly accountable for keeping it visible, managed, and escalated when necessary.

That is where stronger governance starts.

Does your organization assign risks to roles or to real people?

⚠️ The biggest third-party risk is often not the vendor. It is the blind spot around the vendor.

Many organizations assess cost, functionality, and delivery timelines.
Far fewer examine what happens when a third-party system becomes deeply embedded in operations, data flows, and decision-making.

That is where the real risk often hides:
✨ weak access controls
✨ unclear data handling practices
✨ poor incident response alignment
✨ overdependence on systems you do not fully control

A third-party system can extend your capabilities — but it can also extend your exposure.

Strong risk management means looking beyond the contract and asking:
📌 What data can this system access?
📌 What happens if it fails?
📌 How quickly can issues be detected and escalated?
📌 Who remains accountable when things go wrong?

Third-party risk is not just a procurement issue. It is a governance issue.

What do you think organizations miss most in third-party risk reviews: visibility, accountability, or resilience?

🔥 Board reports do not fail because there is too little data. They fail because there is too little clarity.

One strong board slide should help decision-makers see the signal fast:
✨ what matters most
✨ what changed
✨ what the risk is
✨ what action is needed

When reporting to the board, focus less on volume and more on trust.

A slide that wins trust usually does 3 things:
📌 highlights the key issue immediately
📌 connects performance to risk or business impact
📌 makes the next decision easier

If board members have to work too hard to interpret the slide, the reporting is already losing value.

Strong board reporting is not just presentation. It is governance in action.

So, what do you think makes a board slide effective: clarity, relevance, or actionability?

We were proud to have our President, Maurice Taremwa, represent ISACA Kampala Chapter at the IIA Uganda Press Conference ahead of the 17th Board and Audit Committee Workshop and the 20th Annual Internal Audit Conference 2026.

The press conference brought together leaders from government, professional bodies, and industry to reaffirm a shared commitment to stronger governance, accountability, and institutional transformation.

In his remarks, Maurice highlighted the growing impact of technology on audit and risk management, the urgency for organizations to prepare for evolving digital risks, and the importance of collaboration across professions in strengthening oversight and resilience.

This reflects ISACA’s continued focus on advancing digital trust, governance, risk, audit, and cybersecurity leadership in an increasingly complex environment.

We thank IIA Uganda for convening this important engagement and look forward to the conversations ahead.
