NCC Group's Sean Arrowsmith Discusses Supply Chain Cyber Risks in IN Supply

NCC Group in IN Supply: Sean Arrowsmith on supply chain cyber risk

Sean Arrowsmith, Director of Industrials at NCC Group, has been featured in IN Supply discussing the growing scale and complexity of supply chain cyber risk.

Supply chain attacks are increasing in frequency and sophistication, with risk extending beyond direct suppliers into wider ecosystems of partners and technologies. As digital transformation accelerates, cloud platforms, SaaS applications and APIs are expanding the attack surface.

Sean highlights that attackers exploit these ecosystems by targeting suppliers as entry points, often where security controls are less mature. A single compromised supplier can lead to operational disruption, financial loss and reputational damage across organisations.

He emphasises the need for greater visibility and stronger supplier assurance to build resilience against disruption.

This reflects a broader trend: supply chain cyber risk is widening faster than many organisations realise, driven by increasingly complex and interconnected supplier ecosystems.
