Protecting supply chain continuity requires a practical balance between fast delivery and robust security.

Achieving this goal involves a collaborative effort among all stakeholders, including industry associations and insurers, to prevent further disruptions caused by bad actors exploiting vulnerabilities and challenging market conditions.
