Intelligent Spend's PowerThe Big Themes:Enhancing Supply Chain Collaboration and Visibility: Traditional ERP systems, while efficient in automating internal procurement and supply chain processes, are typically confined within the organization's boundaries, leading to disconnects when interacting with suppliers, manufacturers, or carriers. SAP Business Network addresses these challenges by extending end-to-end automation beyond organizational walls. As a result, organizations can build resilient, agile supply chains.Driving Tangible Business Outcomes and ROI: Organizations utilizing SAP Business Network experience improvements in operational metrics. Companies have accelerated order delivery by 27% and increased go-to-market speed by 30%. A pharmaceutical company reduced safety stock by nearly 50% due to improved supply chain visibility, while Richmond International, a luxury goods producer, achieved an 82% digitization of purchase orders and cut warehouse receiving efforts by half.Leveraging AI and Innovation for Supply Chain Resilience: SAP Business Network empowers organizations to build resilient, adaptive supply chains through innovative technologies and AI-driven insights. By providing visibility not only into direct (tier one) suppliers but also into deeper supply chain tiers (tier two and beyond), the network enables proactive risk management and operational agility. Additionally, SAP's strategic focus on becoming an AI-first company ensures continuous innovation.The Big Quote: “SAP Business Network was designed to modernize how companies connect with their trading partners, leveraging AI and configurable business rules to enable seamless transaction exchanges by integrating directly with the back-end systems. SAP Business Network digitizes interactions that previously relied on manual emails, one-off portals and hence we're able to streamline processes and reduce inefficiencies."

Semperis, a pioneer in identity-driven cyber resilience has published the results of its global ransomware study of nearly 1,000 IT and security professionals at organisations spanning multiple industries across the US, UK, France, and Germany. The study aims to understand the prevalence, frequency and costs of ransomware attacks—in both ransom payments and collateral damage. The results highlight an alarming trend toward multiple, sometimes simultaneous attacks, forcing business leaders to re-evaluate their cyber resilience strategies to address common points of failure, including inadequate identity system backup and recovery practices. Organisations must ensure they have appropriate controls to withstand attacks where possible, however assume a mindset that at some point they will have to recover from a catastrophic outage and therefore have a tried and tested plan to recover business operations.

The Putin regime has been widely exploiting the vulnerabilities of global social media platforms, using bots and trolls to promote specific stories and narratives. But they are not alone once developed the same techniques can be used by other powers, international and local to subvert democratic institutions and to warp public perception of the news and politics in their countries. But hybrid digital warfare is not limited to propaganda – it also includes cyber-attacks, hacking and stealing intellectual property, and worse case scenarios such as taking down infrastructure and utilities. ---------- Andrew Hural is a Cybersecurity Veteran, Incident Response Expert, and Director at UnderDefense.

In the past several months, President Biden released a new national cybersecurity strategy. As part of that strategy, the Administration says that it will seek to “Shape Market Forces to Drive Security and Resilience – We will place responsibility on those within our digital ecosystem that are best positioned to reduce risk and shift the consequences of poor cybersecurity away from the most vulnerable in order to make our digital ecosystem more trustworthy, including by: . . . Shifting liability for software products and services to promote secure development practices.” The concept of software liability has been the subject of much debate since it was first suggested more than a decade ago. With the new national strategy that debate becomes much more salient.

For many people who've turned into this podcast, you might be wondering “what is a super app?” And “if I'm not a tech developer, why is this relevant to my business?”I was thinking the same thing.But it turns out that the things that make these apps so attractive to so many people - and keeps them loyal - can be applied to almost any business.In this episode I'm speaking with Kevin Shimota, a leading expert on digital technology in China, a former senior executive at WeChat and then Director of Platform Strategy for Accenture.He's also the author of “The First Superapp: Inside China's WeChat and the New Digital Revolution”.The First Superapp tells the inside story of how the phenomenon of superapps began in China's unique internet market. It explores WeChat's creation and its climb to become the first superapp, and explains the fundamentals of these new apps and how they could be reproduced beyond China.Today Kevin will be talking about:What differentiates China's super apps from anything that exists in the West.Why user value is the biggest moat that any brand can build around its business.The massive benefits of heavy investment in customer goodwill.Why KPIs tend to measure the wrong things - and can lead companies away from long term success.USEFUL LINKS:Connect with Kevin Shimota:  www.kevinshimota.comKevin's podcast:   www.greatfirechat.com“The First Superapp: Inside China's WeChat and the New Digital Revolution” : www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2DKXW2W/Learn about The Current Situation in Sourcing:  https://thecurrentsituation.netA Seat at The Table website:  https://seat.fm

Let's throw caution to the wind and wade into the giant, legally confusing territory of digital privacy. In this episode, we talk with two privacy experts. While neither is an attorney (they both wanted us to point that out), both have extensive experience pondering the reality of digital privacy, as well as privacy's lesser known but more important sibling, digital security. We talk data rights, privacy definitions, and why the ecosystem that is the internet has to stop being ignored in this debate as zero-data enthusiasts push for increased legislation. How did Apple's iOS14.5 impact businesses and privacy?  We'll hit these questions and more in this important episode. Episode Interviewees:Bethany Singer-Baefsky , Director of Privacy at iRobotSimon Poulton, VP of Digital Intelligence at Wpromote

The KPI Cafe returns with Facebook's Head of Automotive Retail Bob Lanham.  The inspiration behind the episode stems from the disjointed approach to defining two key terms used in digital marketing: measurement and optimization. How you define these will help change your perspective on how to approach your digital strategies, budgeting, and benchmarks for success. It's time to start thinking about how to spend better, not spend more, by asking "Why?" more often and leveraging the right Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to make well-informed decisions.Here's What to Expect:Bob Lanham's Origin Story (and Some Other Cool Background) (2:10)Biggest Challenges in Digital Ecosystem (12:00)"too many"ad spent to salesmedia mix model problem-solvingmarketing cut firstWhat Does "Measurement" Mean?

In episode 43 of The Cyber5, we are joined by Steve Brown, Director of Cyber & Intelligence Solutions for Europe at Mastercard. Steve discusses the key aspects of cyber defense learned while working international cyber crime investigations with the United Kingdom's National Crime Agency. He will discuss the proven approach of prevent, protect, prepare, and pursue. We will also discuss the role Mastercard is taking in fighting cyber criminals, key aspects of adversary attribution, and how the public and private sector can forge better partnerships to combat cyber crime.  5 Topics Covered in this Episode: 1) Four P Approach: Prevent, Protect, Prepare, and Pursue: (01:59 - 06:08) Cyber criminals are not siloed. They coordinate on what is working and adjust quickly to take advantage of new vulnerabilities. To combat their adaptive approach, enterprises must have an equally collaborative model. Prevent: Mastercard is working with charities, non-profits, research centers, and universities to encourage individuals with technical backgrounds to pursue a career outside of cyber crime.  Protect: Providing customers of Mastercard with the right knowledge and intelligence to proactively protect themselves. Prepare: Complementing playbooks with red teaming and resilience for Mastercard and its customers to ensure business continuity when an attack occurs. Pursue: It's not just about arrests; it's about Mastercard providing intelligence on infrastructure takedowns, victim engagement, and witness testimony. 2) Mastercard's Cyber Security Strategy: Pioneering the Security of the Digital Eco-System: (06:08 - 09:57) Mastercard's cybersecurity strategy is about securing the entire digital eco-system, both within and external to the perimeter. They want to be actively involved in the cybersecurity community and prioritize technologies that better define authentication across payment systems, identify anomalies that are congruent to compromised data and fraud, and improve standards and best practices. In November 2020, they launched Mastercard Cyber Secure, a unique AI-based technology that better addresses account data compromise events through identification and notification. In practice, victims are generally notified after initial intrusion. After the alert, cyber criminals use the compromised data to facilitate other crimes, including fraud, human trafficking, and espionage. Using risk assessment technology, Mastercard identifies, assesses, and prioritizes those vulnerabilities to Mastercard acquirers around the world. This is particularly critical for the small business community. 3. Mastercard's Role in Third Party Risk Management: (09:57 - 11:43) A critical part of securing the external perimeter is understanding third party suppliers. Mastercard's acquisition of RiskRecon is a testament to their dedication and diligence around third party vulnerabilities.  4. Know Your Adversary: Attribution is an Aspect of Resilience: (11:43 - 20:45) Attribution must be a critical part of enterprise cybersecurity strategy. Proper attribution can be a major source of resilience when responding to a cyber attack. Understanding infrastructure, personalities, actor groups, and TTPs informs proper controls and response strategy. Data collected by enterprises is critical to fighting cyber crime, and enterprises must facilitate ways to legally process and share data and experiences. Enterprises must rely on gaining information and attribution on cyber crime and espionage efforts without the assistance of government organizations. Illustrating the ability to scale security operations and recover from a cyber attack is of critical concern to boards, investors, and shareholders. 5) Private Sector's Increasing Role in Preventing Cyber Crime: (20:45 - 26:00)  The private sector must increase collaboration with the public sector. While this is happening at the tactical, strategic, and inter and intra-governmental levels, it is still not happening at the speed and scale necessary to be effective. The National Cybersecurity Center in the UK and the National Cyber Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA) are two organizations that bring together cybersecurity practices and investigative techniques.
