2024 Observatory: Suppliers cyber risk
This second edition surveyed more than 100 cybersecurity leaders, members of CESIN, from organizations of all sizes and sectors, about how they manage supplier-related cyber risk — methods, tools, challenges — as well as their new expectations in light of the growing impact of new regulations.
After a 2023 edition that demonstrated genuine awareness within organizations, the 2024 edition reveals that nearly 90% of decision-makers surveyed acknowledge this risk as “very important” or “important.” However, two-thirds report assessing fewer than 50 suppliers per year. The new NIS2 and DORA regulations, which will come into effect in the coming weeks, call for a more comprehensive approach to this risk. For 53.4% of organizations, these new regulatory frameworks will lead them to modify their supplier risk management approach within the next twelve months — a slightly higher figure than in 2023 (52%).
