Cybercheck: Beware of Supply Chain Risks

The increasing digitalisation of Dutch society has many benefits but also comes with risks. One of these risks has been drawing increasing attention in recent years and involves the deployment of products and services from countries with an offensive cyber programme that targets the Netherlands or its interests. Countries with an offensive cyber programme may affect the supply chain during the development and maintenance of products and services.

The Dutch General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD), Chief Information Office-Rijk (CIO-Rijk), National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), and National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism (NCTV) have released this joint publication to raise awareness of supply chain risks deriving from the deployment of products and services from countries with an offensive cyber programme.
