In a survey by BlueVoyant, 97% of people said they've been impacted by a security breach that occurred in their supply chain.
How do you combat something over which you seemingly have little or no control? A report by cybersecurity provider BlueVoyant looks at supply chain security breaches and offers tips on how to prevent them.
Further, some 93% of those surveyed said their companies suffered a security breach themselves due to a weakness in a supply chain partner or third-party vendor.
As a result, supply chain threats have received a renewed focus.
Many supply chain attacks triggered through security vulnerabilities occurred after those vulnerabilities were patched by the vendor but before customers got around to applying them.
Instead, you need a continuous method of monitoring and a way to quickly react when serious security flaws are discovered across your supply chain.
