Supply chain organizations face a unique challenge in data management. Working with companies in the US, large supply chains are under the same regulations and requirements in customer data management. While outsourcing business processes can cut costs and development time, the risk of data security is increased and compliance risk increases and development is taken outside of the company. Supply Chain introduces privacy and data protection risk, intellectual property protection and executive accountability challenges and data storage risk. Security threats to physical property and computer networks, systems and data storage increase as third-party development is used. The reputation of the supply chain is at stake if customer data is lost.

Effectively managing data requires a defense in-depth strategy that is proactive, reactive and continuous. A security lifecycle has to follow data from creation, use, modification, transport, monitoring and destruction as data moves onshore and offshore.
