Fighting Third-Party Risk With Threat Intelligence
DARKReading, Wednesday, July 24th, 2024
With every new third-party provider and partner, an organization's attack surface grows. How, then, do enterprises use threat intelligence to enhance their third-party risk management efforts?
The network of global supply chains means organizations are more interconnected than ever, which increases the potential for a data breach or other security incidents involving third-party suppliers and partners. Third-party vendors, especially those digitally connected to an organization, significantly increase their attack surface and open exposure to software supply chain risks, vulnerabilities, and malicious or negligent insiders.
According to Cyentia Institute, 98% of organizations have at least one-third party that suffered a cybersecurity breach within the previous two years.
