Protect against supply chain attacks

What does “supply chain” mean to your org? It could be any third-party provider that you interact with including cloud, software, or service providers. And your supply chain may be vulnerable, but you don’t know it. When data and systems are compromised by attackers using connected applications or services owned or used by external partners — that’s a supply chain, third-party or value-chain attack.

Software supply chain attacks are becoming increasingly common: like SolarWinds Orion.

For an attacker, supply chain attacks are alluring because it allows them to use supplier trust to start attacks and if the same supplier is used by multiple businesses, all those businesses can also become a target, increasing the number of victims exponentially.

Yep, they’re crafty devils.
