Supply Chains in the Spotlight – Cyber Governance Rather Than a Patchwork Approach: Roles, Decision-Making, and Cooperation Between the State, the Bundeswehr, and the Private Sector

Digitalisation makes supply chains faster and more resilient – but also more vulnerable. A panel discussion will examine how companies can protect themselves, their products and their supply chains – as critical infrastructure – against attacks by criminals and suspected (quasi-)state actors: What strategic guidelines and support services are available from the authorities; what military situational assessments and principles does the Bundeswehr contribute; and what governance, role and decision-making models do companies need at the top level? This exchange can serve as a framework for refining priorities and identifying possible next steps.
