In recognition of National Supply Chain Integrity Month, the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is partnering with the Office of the
Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the Department of Defense, and other
government and industry partners to promote a call to action for a unified
effort by organizations across the country to strengthen global supply chains.
With the nation's critical infrastructure dependent on information and
communications technology (ICT) to operate, effective risk management depends
on a unity of effort to understand the complex and interconnected nature of
supply chains. As the nation's risk advisor, CISA is committed to working with
government and industry partners to enhance the security and resilience of the
global ICT supply chain from the evolving risks of tomorrow.
Each week, CISA will promote resources, tools, and information-including those
developed by the public-private ICT SCRM Task
Force<https://www.cisa.gov/ict-scrm-task-force>-focused on a different theme,
to include:
* Week 1: Building Collective Supply Chain
Resilience<https://www.cisa.gov/blog/2021/04/01/april-national-supply-chain-integrity-month>,
* Week 2: Assessing ICT Trustworthiness,
* Week 3: Understanding Supply Chain Threats, and
* Week 4: Knowing the Essentials.
Additionally, CISA will release two new tools to help organizations assess the
trustworthiness of their vendors and suppliers as well as a social media
toolkit with sample messaging and videos that can be used to spread the word
spread the word about the importance of supply chain resiliency.
