The SolarWinds cybersecurity attack served as a wake-up call. Having separate cybersecurity, supply chain, and enterprise risk management disciplines and units within an organization is increasingly untenable. Today’s reality is that these are all intrinsically linked, interwoven and, as a result, interdependent. The sophistication of the SolarWinds attack demonstrates the need for an effective, integrated security program that addresses risk specific to your organizational strategies and objectives.

Learn several key lessons that are emerging as investigations continue into the SolarWinds intrusion in an article published by the Global Association of Risk Professionals.
