With flexible work environments now the norm, the use of endpoint devices has increased – whether your organization allows work-from-home days, hires freelancers, and collaborates through email and phone calls. Many employees require access to the corporate network to carry out their daily responsibilities, and endpoint devices allow employees to do just that. That said, endpoints have become one of the biggest attack vectors for cybercriminals since they are easier to target.

Not all cybersecurity vulnerabilities are created equal. Some vulnerabilities have the potential to bring the entire organization to a halt, such as in the case of ransomware. Meanwhile, other vulnerabilities may only create limited opportunities for exploitation, putting them lower on the list of things to patch.

As cyber attacks and security breaches have increased in recent years, managing digital supply chain risks is becoming more difficult. Cybercriminals exploit vulnerabilities in the ecosystem of less secure suppliers and third-party vendors to gain access to larger institutions. These institutions need to look beyond their own cybersecurity maturity to be successful; cyber risks need to be identified across the ecosystem.
