2021-09-30 03:30

A survey of C-level executives released by CloudBees reveals high confidence levels in software supply chain security but a limited understanding of the essential components that make a software supply chain secure.

Executives overwhelmingly claim their software supply chains are secure or very secure and 93% say they are prepared to deal with an issue such as ransomware or a cyberattack on their supply chain.

Software supply chain security initiatives halfway complete or less.

45% of executives admit that initiatives to secure their software supply chains are halfway complete or less, and 64% say they are not sure who they would turn to first if their supply chain was attacked.

95% of C-level executives say they think more about securing the supply chain now than they did just two years ago, and 92% said a security issue would impact their brand.

Between countries, C-suites in the U.S. are most confident about the security of their software supply chains and those from France are the least confident.
