IP Protection and Cybersecurity in the Supply Chain


This event qualifies for 1.5 CPEs


The rise of the digital supply chain and proliferation of data moving across platforms and among parties requires a new and different kind of umbrella of trust—one that enables increased visibility, agility, and performance. The number of cybersecurity breaches is growing every year, and many were the result of weak security links in the supply chain. Learn how contract managers can play a valuable role helping to proactively reduce cybersecurity risk and the related loss of IP, trade secrets, and confidential information.

Key Takeaways:

  • The value-added role of contract managers in reducing risk
  • Common threats and risks in a digital business environment
  • How to embed IP protection and cybersecurity into managing third parties
  • Methods for shifting from reactive to proactive risk management
  • The importance of “verified trust”
