Procurement teams have gotten sophisticated at tracking vendor ownership, financials, and foreign influence. What they still can't see is what's happening inside that vendor's technology environment right now. Join UpGuard and Craft Co. for a look at the cyber risks hiding in your supply chain, and what changes once you can see them.

Event Information
Supplier intelligence platforms have gotten good at answering who a vendor is. They haven't caught up on what that vendor's cyber risk actually looks like right now, and for procurement and supply chain teams, that gap has become a real liability.
Join UpGuard and Craft Co. for a live fireside chat focused on closing the visibility gap in your supplier intelligence program. Greg Pollock, UpGuard's Director of Research and Insights, will detail cyber risks that live inside vendor supply chains (the kind that don't show up in a questionnaire). Brian Mackerer, Craft Co., then shows what it actually takes to bring this visibility into a live procurement workflow.
In this session, we'll cover:
- Why ownership and financial checks stop short: The data procurement teams already rely on, and where it leaves off.
- What's actually hiding: A first look at what UpGuard's research found inside vendor supply chains.
- How this plays out in procurement: What changes in a real workflow once cyber risk becomes part of the picture.
- Where to start closing the gap: Practical first steps for bringing this visibility into your own vendor program.
Plus a live Q&A. Bring your own supplier intelligence and procurement questions for our speakers, and walk away with practical tips to start implementing today.
