Abstract
Global supply chains are more interconnected than ever before, posing a heightened risk landscape for enterprise systems. Cyber Supply Chain Risk Management (C-SCRM) has emerged as a critical imperative for organizations seeking to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of their data and operations. By integrating C-SCRM strategies directly into Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platforms—specifically SAP S/4HANA—businesses can navigate an evolving threat terrain more effectively. This white paper explores the importance of C-SCRM in ERP ecosystems, offers a deep dive into the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) frameworks, and provides an illustrative scenario of a high-tech organization collaborating with frequently changing third-party logistics providers (3PLs). The analysis includes detailed recommendations and a roadmap for implementation, guided by both SAP and NIST best practices.
