Supply chains have become the largest attack surface in cybersecurity — yet many organisations still rely on static, compliance-driven third-party risk management approaches that fail to reflect how modern ecosystems actually operate.

This session explores the shift towards Active Supply Chain Security (ASCS) — a continuous, network-driven model designed to deliver real-time visibility, proactive risk response, and collective defence across interconnected supplier ecosystems. Learn how organisations are moving from fragmented, point-in-time assessments to a collaborative approach that uncovers systemic risk, reduces supplier fatigue, and strengthens resilience across every link in the chain.

Key takeaways from the session:

• Why traditional TPRM no longer works: Static, compliance-driven approaches fail to address the complexity, speed, and interconnected nature of modern supply chains — leaving organisations exposed to systemic and nth-party risks.
• What Active Supply Chain Security looks like in practice: A shift towards continuous visibility, network-driven insight, and collaborative defence that enables organisations to detect emerging threats and respond proactively.
• How organisations can strengthen resilience across the ecosystem: Standardisation at scale, shared supplier intelligence, and collective action reduce supplier fatigue while giving CISOs and security teams a clearer, real-time view of risk across every link in the chain.
