The most dangerous cyberattacks  today are not always direct. Increasingly, attackers are choosing a quieter and far more effective route - through the supply chain. They target trusted vendors, software providers or service partners instead of solely targeting one organisation at a time and then take advantage of access points to harm multiple organisations at once. Supply chain attacks have become a serious national security risk as a result of this transition. How Trust becomes the entry point Modern organisations depend on a vast network of third-party vendors. These links are important for speed and scale, from cloud services and software updates to managed IT providers. But they can also pose a risk. Attackers know that it's extremely difficult to effectively breach a secure organisation. It is often easier to take advantage of a smaller vendor with weaker security precautions. After entering, attackers are able to get to their real targets through shared systems, software up...

Protecting critical infrastructure from state-sponsored attacks is no longer a security concern but the core of national resilience, economic stability, and public safety. As digitalization and interconnected systems expand their capabilities, they equally increase the exposure to risk. State-sponsored attackers recognize this and are heavily investing on sophisticated cyber operations designed to disrupt power grids, hospital networks, transportation systems and telecom networks. Unlike typical cybercriminals, they differ in both intent and capability. These actors are well funded, highly skilled and often operate with geopolitical objectives. Their goal is not just disruption but to have influence over essential systems, create pressure and at times gaining strategic advantage. This makes such attacks fundamentally different and far more dangerous in today’s threat landscape. From Breaches to Disruption Traditional cybersecurity thinking has focused on preventing breaches. But in cr...
