Israeli intelligence company Cyberint launched a new supply chain intelligence module April 19 aimed at tackling the growing security risks that come from companies managing their supply chain via third-party vendors and technologies.

The module offers three key functions. First, it discovers and automatically identifies technologies, vendors, suppliers and other third parties that have digital connections with customers. After that, a risk assessment is assigned to the identified entity to determine the likelihood of future incidents occurring. Finally, the module's proactive alerting feature sends users targeted, real-time notifications identifying the potential security risks displayed by the third-party entity.
