Understand and Reduce the Risks Hidden in Your Supply Chain

    Cyber Supply Chain Risk Assessments

    Your supply chain can be an entry point for attackers if vendor controls and processes are not aligned to your security expectations. Zynet’s Cyber Supply Chain Risk Assessments evaluate the cyber maturity of your suppliers, identify weak points and provide clear actions that reduce risk and support compliance.

    Why Supply Chain Risk Assessments Matter

    Many cyber incidents begin through suppliers, partners or third party systems that have trusted access to your environment. Modern organisations rely on cloud platforms, SaaS applications, outsourced services and integrated vendors. Each connection introduces potential exposure to data loss, misuse or operational disruption.

    Zynet provides clarity by assessing supplier controls against recognised frameworks, reviewing their ability to protect your data and analysing the risks created through your operational relationships. You gain the insight needed to make informed decisions, strengthen assurance and align your supply chain with your security expectations.

    Our Assessment Framework

    Zynet’s supply chain assessments follow a structured and standards aligned model to ensure trust and measurable improvement.

    • Governance and Assurance Review

      We examine supplier policies, processes and oversight arrangements to assess how security is managed and maintained.

    • Access and Identity Controls

      Supplier access to systems and data is reviewed to ensure appropriate verification, monitoring and limitation.

    • Application and Cloud Security

      Security practices across cloud environments, hosted systems and SaaS platforms are assessed for alignment with best practice.

    • Data Protection and Handling
      We evaluate how sensitive or business critical information is stored, transmitted and monitored within the supplier environment.
    • Operational and Incident Readiness
      Supplier capability to detect, respond and recover from incidents is reviewed to determine the overall resilience of your supply chain.
