Modern supply networks face sophisticated attacks across digital and physical systems. As artificial intelligence and quantum computing rapidly advance, these threats will become more automated and complex. Organisations must protect an expanding web of interconnected suppliers, systems and data flows against increasingly sophisticated threats.
A comprehensive defence framework focusing on effective controls and response strategies is essential in preparation for next-generation attacks. The future requires a fundamental shift in how we think about defence - from reactive to predictive, from isolated to interconnected - transforming how we detect, respond to and prevent attacks across interconnected business ecosystems.
