Security News > 2022 > June > How the blurring of the “supply chain” opens your doors to attackers—and how you can close them

There have been more than 200 dedicated supply chain attacks over the past decade.

If the supply chain is anything that potentially gives you an opportunity to hop to another target, just about everything - including you - is part of the supply chain.

With services like GitHub, AWS, and others forming a complex web of supply chain threats, it can be extremely difficult to convey these risks concisely to decision makers in your organization.

That's why communication is key when discussing a topic that's constantly in the news like supply chain attacks.

It's also crucial to educate executives about how vast and amorphous the supply chain can be, because attackers are well aware.

The scope of these decisions can often create an impossibly large risk profile, so understanding your key suppliers and those that you supply is often your biggest step towards effective supply chain security.
