The Supply Chain Buzz for November 15th Featuring Richard Hummel with NETSCOUT

It's a Digital Transformers takeover of the Supply Chain Buzz for November 15, produced in partnership with TNS - and with good reason! According to cybersecurity firm Kaspersky, DDoS attacks have increased by 24% in the past year, while smart DDoS attacks increased by 31%. That's a big problem for supply chains big and small, particularly as digital transformation efforts widen the network of third-party providers and IoT endpoints (that double nicely as attack vectors). In this livestream, co-hosts Scott and Kevin tackle the topic of cybersecurity with a little help from featured guest Richard Hummel, Manager of Threat Intelligence at NETSCOUT. Join this dynamic trio as they break down the increasing speed and bandwidth of DDos attacks, new, more targeted ransomware strategies, the intricate web of entities impacted by supply chain vulnerabilities - and the shift to manufacturing firms as the latest target of cyber attacks. You'll learn new terms like "honeypot," get actionable strategies for safeguarding your network - and find out how you can get timely updates on the threat landscape from NETSCOUT.

The Supply Chain Buzz for January 10th with Scott Luton and Kevin L. Jackson

The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

Over the last two years, everyone has learned how critical, fragile, and interconnected our supply chains are. Their reach also means that seemingly insignificant consumer devices may have direct ties to high-stakes geopolitical issues half a world away. Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Kevin L. Jackson started the week of January 10th by taking on topics from rice cookers to human rights abuses in the distant province of Xinjiang in China.

In this session, created in collaboration with a live digital audience, Kevin and Scott talk about:

• The widespread implications of the fact that 63% of the world’s semiconductor chips are manufactured in Taiwan, followed by South Korea and China

• Why new orders of finished goods in December rose at the slowest rate of 2021, while manufacturing work backlogs increased

• The ongoing tensions between tech companies like Intel and China over human rights concerns in Xinjiang province
