Protect Your Supply Chain From the Inside Out With SecurityScorecard’s SCDR Solution

In an increasingly complex cybersecurity landscape, supply chain attacks have become one of the most daunting threats to businesses. From SolarWinds to Kaseya, these incidents demonstrate that a small vulnerability at any link in the vendor ecosystem can cause massive damage to your organization.

Traditional third-party risk management (TPRM) approaches often stop at assessing and scoring risks. However, that is not enough in a world where threats change every second. That is why we want to introduce you to SecurityScorecard Supply Chain Detection and Response (SCDR) – a breakthrough that helps you proactively protect your entire supply chain.

SCDR: From Risk Assessment to Proactive Action
SecurityScorecard goes beyond providing Security Ratings for your suppliers. With SCDR, we provide a comprehensive framework that helps you:

  1. Detect

Continuous and comprehensive monitoring: SecurityScorecard has a massive global sensor network that continuously collects billions of cybersecurity signals from the internet. We scan and analyze global cyberspace, data from malware sinkholes, dark web leaks, and hundreds of other data sources to get the most comprehensive view of your security posture and that of all your vendors.

Attack surface intelligence: Understand all of your and your partners’ internet-facing assets and identify potential vulnerabilities that attackers could target.

Vulnerability and Threat Intelligence: Continuously update on the latest vulnerabilities (CVEs) and provide insights into adversary attack campaigns, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). This helps you identify threats targeting your supply chain early.

  1. Prioritize:

Smart Cybersecurity Score: Use easy-to-understand A-F scores to quickly assess each vendor’s risk level.

AI-powered risk analysis: SecurityScorecard’s advanced AI platform analyzes massive amounts of data to determine which companies in your supply chain are most at risk of attack, based on discovered security issues and current attack trends.

Vulnerability ranking by severity: In addition to detecting vulnerabilities, SCDR helps you prioritize them based on their actual severity and likelihood of being exploited, ensuring that your resources are focused on the most pressing risks.

  1. Respond:

Collaborate and remediate efficiently: SCDR provides an intuitive platform for you and your vendors to collaborate. You can easily alert multiple vendors to threats at once, recommend specific remediation actions, and track progress on resolving issues.

Automate processes: Streamline vendor lifecycle management, from security policy enforcement to compliance proof storage, saving time and reducing manual effort.

Reduce response time: By providing timely insights and seamless collaboration, SCDR helps you dramatically reduce the time it takes to detect, assess, and remediate cybersecurity incidents in your supply chain.

Why is SecurityScorecard’s SCDR important to your business?

  • Proactive attack prevention: Move from reactive to proactively detecting and remediating vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them.
  • Mitigate Third-Party Risk: Efficiently and seamlessly manage risk from hundreds, even thousands, of suppliers, reducing the risk of data breaches across partners.
  • Enhance cybersecurity resilience: Build a stronger and more resilient supply chain against threats, protecting business assets and reputation.
  • Optimize operations: Save time and resources by automating supplier risk management processes.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Gain a comprehensive and trusted view of your supply chain cybersecurity posture to make informed security and business decisions.
