How can you know that your suppliers and partners aren’t putting your business at risk with their own security weaknesses? How do you know your reputation is being protected? What is Supply Chain and Third-Party Risks? Imagine a chain. Each link in the chain represents a company or organization involved in producing or delivering a product or service. If one link in the chain is weak or breaks, the entire chain can be affected. That's essentially what supply chain risks are. It's about the potential dangers that can arise from the companies or organizations that a business relies on. These risks can range from quality issues to security breaches. Third-party risks are a specific type of supply chain risk. They refer to the risks associated with external entities that a business works with, such as vendors, suppliers, or contractors. How does this affect your business? Vulnerable Attack Surface: When a business relies on third-party services, it effectively expands its digital footprint. This means there are more potential entry points for cyberattacks. Data Exposure: If a third-party service provider experiences a data breach, the sensitive information of the business's customers and employees could be compromised. Disruption of Operations: A cyberattack on a third-party service provider could disrupt the business's operations, leading to financial losses and damage to reputation. In short, supply chain and third-party risks are a growing concern in cybersecurity because they can introduce vulnerabilities and expose businesses to potential threats. To mitigate these risks, businesses must carefully evaluate their third-party relationships, implement strong security measures, and maintain regular monitoring of their supply chain. So, how can we help with this? With our specialized services Securicom can help with third-party assessments, continuous risk- and vulnerability monitoring, and security control validations on your supply chain, ensuring that risks and vulnerabilities from supply chain partners are identified and reported in real time.

Did You Know that Ransomware Attacks can affect any size business?   Imagine your computer is locked, and a message pops up demanding you pay money to unlock it. This is essentially a ransomware attack.   How it Works: Infection: A malicious program, often disguised as a harmless file, enters your computer. Encryption: This program locks your files, making them inaccessible. Demand: The attackers demand a ransom payment, often in cryptocurrency, to unlock your files.   The Dangers: Loss of Data: If you don't pay the ransom or can't recover your files, you could lose important documents, photos, or business data. Financial Loss: Paying the ransom can be expensive, and there's no guarantee you'll get your files back. Disruption: Ransomware attacks can disrupt businesses, leading to lost productivity and financial losses. Privacy Concerns: Attackers might steal sensitive information from your computer, putting your privacy at risk.   Attack Surfaces to Protect: Network Server and Endpoint User   Prevention Tips: Keep Software Updated: Regularly update your operating system and software to patch security vulnerabilities. (Let’s talk Patch Management Service) Back Up Your Data: Create regular backups of your important files to an external hard drive or cloud storage. (Let’s talk Cloud Backup and recovery Service) Be Cautious of Attachments: Avoid opening attachments from unknown or suspicious sources. (Let’s talk e-Mail Security and User awareness Service) Use Strong Passwords: Create complex passwords for your accounts. (Let’s talk Password Manager Service) Consider Cybersecurity Software: Invest in reliable antivirus and anti-malware software.

It's not just about the finances but also about the trust you've carefully built with your clients. This story is not unusual. It happens more frequently than we’d expect. While 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗱-𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 may offer convenience and efficiency, their unexpected implications can often surprise even the most attentive teams.

The more you try to secure it, the more gaps arise. ↳ Complex settings, ↳ Large hardware costs ↳ Multiple steps for IT and end user to get access ↳ Installation fees, ↳ Unending maintenance cycles And when something goes wrong, people tend to assign blame instead of finding a solution. We understand these challenges since we have seen the consequences of broken third-party access systems. No more endless settings or high maintenance fees. That’s why Securicom Secure Services Edge (SSE) provides quick onboarding, robust user authentication, and security against SaaS data leakage—all in one simplified platform.
