A survey reveals that only 55% of businesses monitor cyber risks across their supply chains, highlighting significant vulnerability. Recent cyber attacks on major retailers like Marks & Spencer and Co-op demonstrate operational and reputational risks tied to digital supply chain dependencies.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Logistics Tech, and 1 source has reported it between 6 Aug 2026 and 14 Aug 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must treat your suppliers' cybersecurity as part of your defence to keep goods moving; weak links in partner systems can stop your entire chain. Act now to audit and secure your extended network or face costly operational shutdowns.
