What does Cyber Guardian's supplier security entail?

We analyse your suppliers’ website security and their email impersonation risk.

Your suppliers’ website security has an impact on you, as long as your business is dependent on your suppliers’ websites. If your suppliers do not apply certain security measures to their websites, they could suffer cybercriminal attacks making their websites inoperative, or exfiltrating data you have exchanged with them.

Your suppliers’ corporate email security has an impact on you as long as your business is dependent on the data exchanged through this communication channel.

If your suppliers do not apply certain security measures to their corporate email settings they could be at risk of email impersonation. We analyse their email security settings to determine whether they could be easily impersonated, as well as their email addresses to determine whether they have been involved in public data breaches. We will notify you if we detect any issues so that you can take precautionary measures when receiving suppliers’ email requests related to information on payments, bank accounts, etc.
