This session will address what contracting professionals can do to respond to customer requirements for cybersecurity and to assure compliance and cyber 'hygiene' on the part of their supply chain. Cyber threats to the supply chain include unauthorized access to information, corruption of data or disruption to information systems. Increasingly, government authorities are moving to require cyber protection of sensitive information. Regulatory or other forms of legal liability can be consequences of failure to protect information security in the supply chain. Many information types merit protection, including proprietary technical and financial information, other business confidential records, consumer records or other information subject to privacy and security legal requirements. The program will provide practical insights on what information requires protection, how to respond to customer cyber demands, ways to assess and improve internal cyber practices, and where to use contract terms and conditions to reduce cyber supply chain risk.
