Supply chains have evolved into vast digital ecosystems that are every bit as critical to business continuity as the physical assets within a business’s operational network. The unfortunate truth is that they are also among the most fragile.

In this latest article we look in detail at the process used in a pen-test including a step-by step, real-world timeline simulation of how a pen-test could look.

Your organisation has a fire safety drill. You’ve rehearsed it, understood it and know what to expect - can you say the same for your cyber? A well-designed and consistently rehearsed incident response plan forms the backbone of organisational resilience. It ensures that when a breach occurs, your teams know exactly what to do, who to inform, and how to act in a way that minimises damage and accelerates recovery.
