What is the intersection of AI and compliance? What about Machine Learning? Are you using ChatGPT? These questions are just three of the many we will explore in this cutting-edge podcast series, Compliance and AI, hosted by Tom Fox, the award-winning Voice of Compliance. In this episode, host Tom Fox visits with CoverBase newcomers Brian Shaw (GTM leader) and Constantine Malaxos (Head of Alliances) on why they joined in 2026 and what is changing in third-party risk management (TPRM).
Brian Shaw and Constantine Malaxos see third-party risk management as a discipline that must evolve from slow, calendar-based reviews into continuous, AI-driven monitoring that can keep pace with rapidly changing vendor and internal risk. Shaw stresses that organizations need native AI to gain visibility into where AI is already being used, while also managing drift, bias, and compliance concerns through trigger-based oversight rather than annual assessments. Malaxos adds that the future belongs to platforms that combine strong TPRM foundations with AI-native capabilities, turning large volumes of data into actionable intelligence and measurable outcomes. Together, they present modernization as a practical shift toward faster decisions, fewer bottlenecks, and smarter risk workflows that help teams focus on the vendors and issues that matter most.
