The protection of the entire software and hardware supply chain from compromise, covering open-source dependencies, third-party code, build pipelines, firmware, and cloud services. This discipline expanded after major incidents demonstrated that attacking one supplier can compromise thousands of downstream organizations simultaneously.
Supply chain attacks rank among the most impactful cybersecurity threats because a single compromise can cascade across entire industries. Security engineers must implement SBOM practices and dependency scanning. GRC analysts must include supply chain risk in vendor assessments. CISOs report supply chain risk as a top board-level concern.
