Secured Supply Chain in the Cloud
The Outcome
ÓÐÁϺÐ×ÓAPP generated millions in cost savings for the client by decreasing capital infrastructure and licensing fees. All this occurred with zero disruption to their supply chain or manufacturing operations. With a repeatable process to increase accountability, the client now boasts a 98% secure cloud compliance rate across their teams and external vendors, up from 40% at the project inception.
The Situation
The speed of innovation left security as an afterthought at a Fortune 500 global manufacturer. Multiple cloud vendors and external partners were integrated inconsistently. The resulting security compliance across all cloud environments put the global manufacturer in a tenuous position.
The Approach
ÓÐÁϺÐ×ÓAPP created a set of baseline security goals for their own teams and external vendors. Based on leading industry standards, the goals instituted a letter grade system that allowed the company to rate compliance. Our team developed a custom dashboard to help teams and vendors understand what security actions are expected and where they tacked against the new standards.
