"I think the big cyber incidents happening in the Middle East and Europe in recent months, particularly ransomware as a service, so big names like Jaguar Land Rover and others, have kind of given this meeting an extra buzz just before we met. Quite a few people flew in from that have been affected by the supply chain attack on baggage handling software. So it was very relevant and topical."
"I think that's touched on a broader theme for the last couple of days, which is about supply chain. This is a global supply chain in many cases. So how do we secure that? It's a challenge, but it's no longer enough for companies or governments to secure their own perimeters. They have to worry about the tens of thousands of suppliers and vendors attached to them, their ecosystem, if you like."
Recent major cyber incidents in the Middle East and Europe, including ransomware-as-a-service and supply-chain intrusions, have increased urgency around cybersecurity. Supply chains frequently span multiple countries and involve tens of thousands of suppliers and vendors, expanding attack surfaces beyond traditional perimeter defenses. Companies and governments must account for their broader vendor ecosystems and coordinate protections across sectors. Regulatory frameworks in the EU and the UK are shifting toward shared responsibility for supply chain security. Differing international relationships and strategic alignments complicate cross-border cooperation and collective risk management in cyberspace.
