II1840B - Securing Your Connected Supply Chain

Today’s global supply chains rely on an increasing number of interconnected devices to capture and relay timely data, and the relationship between device and data trust has become closely interlinked. These devices, often located outside of a secure networked environment, have become a favorite target of bad actors. A single disruption to a production line based on compromised device data has been proven to cost an organization 5% of its annual profits. As the complexity of these connected ecosystems increases, organizations require an automated approach to secure the full lifecycle of their connected devices, ensuring adequate protection from cyber-attacks and enabling sustainable, resilient supply chain operations.
