Zero Trust in the Supply Chain of Critical Infrastructure: When Trust Must Be Verified

18. júna 2026
The weakest point of an organization has long ceased to be its own technology. Increasingly, it is becoming a supplier who has access to systems, data, or ensures the operation of critical services.

Critical Infrastructure Doesn't Start at the Power Plant. It Starts in the Supply Chain.

10. júna 2026
Imagine a situation where equipment that ensures the supply of electricity, the production of drinking water, or the operation of a hospital fails. The failure itself may not be the biggest problem. A much greater challenge can be discovering that the replacement part is manufactured on the other side of the world and its delivery will take several months. It is in situations like these that the true importance of resilient supply chains becomes clear.

Kritická infraštruktúra sa nezačína v elektrárni. Začína sa v dodávateľskom reťazci.

10. júna 2026
Predstavme si situáciu, že dôjde k poruche zariadenia zabezpečujúceho dodávku elektriny, výrobu pitnej vody alebo fungovanie nemocnice. Samotná porucha nemusí znamenať najväčší problém. Oveľa väčšou výzvou môže byť zistenie, že náhradný diel sa vyrába na druhom konci sveta a jeho dodanie potrvá niekoľko mesiacov. Práve v takýchto situáciách sa ukazuje skutočný význam odolnosti dodávateľských reťazcov.
