No matter how good your cyber security is, you should assume that you or your partners experience a cyber incident at some point.

​​​​​​

A supplier whose network is connected to yours gets hacked.  The result:

​​​​​​Supply Chain cyber security focuses on and identifies the risks associated with your suppliers, and it’s important business owners invest in this.

​​Consider the implications, disruption, and impact, if your supplier is attacked...

  • What are you expecting of them and their response?
