Protecting against software supply chain attacks
Last year’s MOVEit and 3CX vulnerabilities offered a stark reminder of the risk software supply chain attacks pose today.
Threat actors exploit vulnerabilities to infiltrate a software provider’s network and modify the software’s original functionality with malicious code. Once the infected software is passed on to customers, typically through software updates or application installers, the breach opens the door to unauthorized tasks, such as exfiltrating sensitive information or hijacking data.
