The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) have published new guidance which describes practical steps to help organisations assess cyber security in their supply chains.
It’s aimed at medium to large organisations who need to gain confidence or assurance that mitigations are in place for vulnerabilities associated with working with suppliers.
More specifically, the guidance:
- describes typical supplier relationships, and ways that organisations are exposed to vulnerabilities and cyber attacks via the supply chain
- defines expected outcomes and key steps to help you assess your supply chain’s approach to cyber security
- answers common questions you may encounter as you work through the guidance
- supplements the NCSC’s Supply Chain Principles (published in 2020) which is referenced throughout
