Supply chain security is critical



Supply chain security is the part of supply chain management that focuses on the risk management of external suppliers, vendors, logistics and transportation. Its goal is to identify, analyze and mitigate the risks inherent in working with other organizations as part of a supply chain. Supply chain security involves both physical security relating to products and cybersecurity for software and services. Because supply chains can vary greatly from group to group, and many different organizations may be involved, there is no single set of established supply chain security guidelines or best practices. A complete supply chain security strategy requires risk management principles and cyber defense in depth. It also takes into account protocols set by government agencies like the Department of Homeland Security or customs regulations for international supply chains.



In the Supply chain attack Cyber criminals may choose to attack a third party in order to gain access to their main target or targets. In the past, supply chain security primarily focused on physical security and integrity. Physical threats encompass risks with both internal and external sources, such as theft, sabotage and terrorism. The recent cyberthreats have risen to the forefront of supply chain security concerns. Cyberthreats include vulnerabilities in IT and software systems, like malware attacks, piracy, unauthorized ERP access and unintentional or maliciously injected backdoors in the purchased, open source or proprietary software used by organizations. Cybercriminals attack a weaker organization in the target's supply chain and use that access to meet their goals. Recently, Chinese government has ordered that its ministries stop using foreign-made hardware and software by 2022. Supply chain security touches on many areas, and will vary greatly from organization to organization. R
