Cyber security in supply chain management (cyber security processes)

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the current status and future direction of cybersecurity processes in supply chain management. The paper presents qualitative research for analysing the implementation of cybersecurity processes in supply chain companies and for identifying ways of improvement in that subject. Based on research and survey data collected from professionals in supply chain companies, we can conclude that there is a lack of implementation of robust cybersecurity processes in the supply chain industry to mitigate risks of cyberattack. There are a few recommendations in place, and the main practical result is a call on the government to provide support and implement mandatory frameworks from an end-to-end cyber supply chain risk management approach with collaboration at various levels (organisational, sectoral, national) to achieve cyber resilience.
