What is Cyber security?

Cyber security is the science, art and technology of protecting digital data and information systems from cyber attacks and other online threats. It encompasses a variety of disciplines and requires a different set of expertise than traditional security.

Cyber security is a multidisciplinary field that covers many aspects of computer science, engineering, law, psychology, sociology and other related fields. The ultimate goal of cyber security is to protect information from getting into the wrong hands and being exploited by unwanted parties, malware, or hackers.

 

Why Should You Protect Your Supply Chain Information?

Business partners, vendors, and sellers often communicate via computer networks. The communication may include sensitive data of your business or may leave an open gateway to your systems. Data leakage may cause severe damage to your organization and your partners.

Sometimes, instead of attacking the target directly, a cybercriminal may attack a weaker organization in the target’s supply chain (like one of your vendors) and use that access to meet their goals. It is important to secure the data while sending it to others and receiving it from others.

Supply chain security should be a high priority for organizations, as a breach within the system could create severe damage or disruption to your business operations. Delivering products that have been tampered with or are unauthorized could be harmful to customers and lead to unwanted lawsuits.  Additionally, vulnerabilities within a supply chain could lead to unnecessary costs, inefficient delivery schedules and a loss of intellectual property.
