Credit unions are operating in a threat environment that's growing more complex by the day. From ransomware and supply chain attacks to heightened regulatory expectations and staffing constraints, vulnerability management has become one of the most urgent and difficult security challenges to get right. Many credit unions are struggling to keep pace, balancing limited resources and outdated tools while facing increasing scrutiny from regulators and members.

Join Credit Union Times, experts from BBH, and credit union leaders as we tackle these challenges head-on in a timely roundtable discussion. We will explore how credit unions can evolve their vulnerability management programs, prioritize effectively based on real threat intelligence, and build a security-minded culture organization-wide.

Whether your institution is just starting to formalize its program or looking to take the next maturity leap, this session will deliver practical, credit union-specific solutions you can apply immediately.

You will learn:

• How to get a clear view of today's top cybersecurity threats and why credit unions are especially exposed.
• Actionable strategies to mature vulnerability programs without overextending limited resources.
• Practical frameworks to prioritize risks, meet NCUA and FFIEC expectations, and strengthen third-party oversight.
• Real-world examples of how automation and managed services can close critical security gaps.
• Key insights to help turn vulnerability management from a compliance checkbox into a strategic security advantage.
