NCSC Unveils New Supply Chain Risk Management Guidance

Exploitation of supply chains by foreign adversaries is a growing threat to America.

The National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC) today released a new tri-fold document, Supply Chain Risk Management: Reducing Threats to Key U.S. Supply Chains, to help private sector and U.S. Government stakeholders mitigate risks to America’s critical supply chains.  As part of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, NCSC is working to raise awareness of supply chain attacks, including those that are cyber-enabled.

The tri-fold highlights supply chain risks, introduces a process for supply chain risk management, and establishes three focus areas to reduce threats to key U.S. supply chains.  The document also outlines key tools and technologies to protect each stage of the supply chain lifecycle, from design to retirement.
