The recent revelation of the SolarWinds hack provides an illustrative and timely example of how cybersecurity vulnerabilities can affect every organization, with the company’s enterprise software, a network monitoring system, installed at government agencies, including the Departments of Commerce, Defense, and Treasury, tech giants such as Cisco, Intel, Nvidia, and VMware, and hospitals and universities. Our research shows the SolarWinds breach should come as no surprise. The risk of these supply chain hacks is much higher than previously acknowledged, due to the high level of connectivity across different sectors in the economy.
