Navigating Supply Chain Cyber Risk

This course provides a comprehensive examination of supply chain cyber risk — one of the fastest-growing threat vectors facing organizations today. Students will explore the full lifecycle of third-party risk management (TPRM), from identifying and inventorying vendors to assessing, quantifying, and remediating risk. The course integrates real-world case studies, regulatory analysis, and practical frameworks to prepare students for leadership roles in cybersecurity risk management.

Supply chain and third-party cyber incidents are responsible for the majority of the most significant data breaches of the past decade. Organizations of every size are now required by regulation to implement formal third-party risk programs. This course equips students with both the conceptual foundation and the operational toolkit to design, execute, and continuously improve these programs.
