How should organizations approach supply chain security?
Organizations should start by understanding their own cyber risk management strategies, then develop a tailored approach to assess supply chain security. This includes prioritizing key factors, embedding security practices in new supplier contracts, integrating security measures into existing contracts, and continuously monitoring performance against defined metrics.
Why is it important to address supply chain risks?
Supply chain attacks pose a significant threat to organizations, potentially leading to long-lasting impacts on both businesses and their customers.
