Supply chain attacks are on the rise. Small and medium sized businesses are often targeted by attackers to either gain access into larger companies systems, or access information. End clients know this and therefore carry out extensive procurement activities on their suppliers (including research agencies). There is also an expectation for agencies to carry similar checks on their suppliers (e.g. freelancers, fieldwork providers) – this is to ensure client commercial and participant personal information is secured wherever it exists down the supply chain.
During this session we will cover some basic security hygiene items which you can apply to your devices and cloud services to help minimize risks when you are custodians of this information. We’ll also show you what to look out for from a risk perspective when selecting, suggesting and using cloud services (including AI tools) to assist you in your projects.
We will also be looking at a few examples of common attacks and what to do to help prevent a security breach.
Attendees can expect to leave the session with added knowledge on how to protect digital information on systems and devices as well as feeling empowered to confidently respond to client security questions and questionnaires.
