THREAT INTEL: SUPPLY CHAIN SECURITY – The majority of global organisations (54%) suffered a software supply chain attack in the past year, and most are unable to keep up with the growing risk landscape according to Synopsys who have released their ‘State of Software Supply Chain Security Risk’ report.
