Enhancing its predecessor, the SCS 9001 2.0 standard presents a more comprehensive global cybersecurity and supply chain security framework adaptable to various communication networks across industries and sectors.

How does the SCS 9001 2.0 standard differ from its predecessor regarding cybersecurity and supply chain security?

SCS 9001 2.0 expands upon the prior release, SCS 9001, with improved coverage for hardware provenance and development, cloud-based services, procurement, and shipping/logistics as primary examples.

SCS 9001 2.0 is designed as a global standard without national or regional biases to promote global adoption.

Considering the global nature of ICT supply chains, SCS 9001 2.0 includes requirements for procurement, shipping, and logistics to alleviate the potential for tampering or insertion of fraudulent or tainted components in the supply chain.

From its conception, SCS 9001 has had a focus on supply chain security for the ICT industry.
