Tony was fantastic. He is knowledgeable and friendly. He came into class and let me test the new cord before he left. It worked. I was so happy that he got one for our room. I prefer to use the cord everyday (rather than the screen share option). Thank you.
Supply Chain Cybersecurity: What You Need to Know
- Manufacturing supply chains rely on a network of third parties, remote connections, and digital tools. A breach in any part of that network can disrupt production, leak sensitive data, or violate compliance standards.
- We perform in-depth risk assessments, enforce strict access controls, and provide monitoring for third-party activity. Our approach aligns with regulatory frameworks to ensure your vendors meet security standards.
- Yes. We secure cloud platforms, IoT-connected devices, and remote access solutions with layered protection that spans identity, network, and application levels.
- Key regulations include CMMC, NIST SP 800-161, DFARS, and ISO 28000. Vancord’s services help you align with these standards and prepare for audits.
- Many ICS and OT assets rely on vendor support, software updates, or remote monitoring. These create entry points for attackers unless properly secured through vendor management, segmentation, and monitoring.
- Start with a vendor and third-party risk assessment. Vancord will help you map dependencies, identify risks, and build a strategic plan to close gaps across your supply chain.
