<h2><a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/csrc/media/Projects/cyber-supply-chain-risk-management/documents/20240719_C-SCRMFactSheetFinal.pdf">Increasing Complexity and Interdependencies</a>&nbsp;</h2>
&nbsp;
The modern supply chain is a complex web of interconnected systems and processes. This complexity increases the risk of cyberattacks, as vulnerabilities in one part of the chain can impact the entire network. Businesses must implement comprehensive cybersecurity strategies to boost their digital defenses and keep their supply chains safe from these threats.&nbsp;

<h2><a href="https://csrc.nist.gov/pubs/ir/8276/final">AI-Powered Threats and Advanced Cyber Attacks</a>&nbsp;</h2>
&nbsp;
Cybercriminals are using artificial intelligence (AI) to develop more sophisticated and targeted attacks. These AI-powered threats can bypass traditional security measures, which makes it essential for companies to implement advanced cybersecurity solutions. By using AI and machine learning, organizations can detect and respond to AI-powered threats in real-time and minimize the potential damage.&nbsp;
