The results of our annual Third Party Breach Report are in! We scoured OSINT and exclusive sources to track and analyze nearly every third-party breach from 2023. Here are the highlights: 🛑 Unauthorized network access remains the leading cause of third-party breaches, accounting for 53% of incidents. 👾 Ransomware group CL0P wreaked havoc by exploiting vulnerabilities in MOVEit and GoAnywhere. 💪 Companies are prioritizing transparency and promptness, decreasing the average time to report incidents from 108 to 76 days.

About us
One in four organizations suffered from a cyber attack in the last year, resulting in production, reputation and financial losses. The real problem is adversaries attack companies via third parties, island-hopping their way into target organizations. At Black Kite, we're redefining vendor risk management with the world’s first global third-party cyber risk monitoring platform, built from a hacker's perspective. With 500+ customers across the globe and counting, we're committed to improving the health and safety of the entire planet's cyber ecosystem with the industry’s most accurate and comprehensive cyber intelligence. While other security ratings service (SRS) providers try to narrow the scope, Black Kite provides the only standards-based cyber risk assessments that analyze your supply chain's cybersecurity posture from three critical dimensions: technical, financial, and compliance.

During #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth, we’re reminded that when security becomes an afterthought, the consequences can ripple through entire supply chains. But in today’s fast-moving landscape of tech software, the temptation to prioritize speed over security is all too common. As a third-party risk management (TPRM) solution provider, we understood from day one that security isn’t just a feature—it’s a foundation. As a vendor ourselves, we know that any vulnerability in our product could become a vulnerability for our customers. That’s why Black Kite was built with security at its core since our inception and why signing CISA’s Secure by Design Pledge was a natural next step. In our latest blog, Black Kite’s CSO Bob Maley and CTO Candan BOLUKBAS discuss how Black Kite has stayed ahead of evolving threats by embedding security into every layer of our platform. Learn more about our journey, our commitment to security, and how we’re continuously raising the bar for security standards in TPRM: https://lnkd.in/egypxg-4 #Cybersecurity #TPRM #CISA #SecureByDesign #CyberResilience #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth

🚨 Think TPRM is Just a Technical Problem? Think Again! 🚨 In our latest RiskBusters episode, Jeffrey Wheatman and Bob Maley bust one of the biggest myths in Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM): "This is a technical problem that only technical people can solve." Truth bomb: TPRM isn’t all about patching vulnerabilities and fixing technical issues. It’s actually much more about risk prioritization and making smarter business decisions. Discover how tools like the Strategy Report from Black Kite can help you focus on what really matters, reducing risk without overwhelming your vendors—or your team. 📺 Watch the full episode now! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dWEY_R6E #RiskBusters #TPRM #ThirdPartyRisk #Cybersecurity #VendorRisk #RiskManagement #BusinessRisk #RiskPrioritization #BlackKite #VendorManagement
