Case Study: NHS Test and Trace Secures Supply Chains with Risk Ledger

How NHS defend as one with Risk Ledger

The NHS Test and Trace, a service created to stop the spread of COVID-19, faced the immense challenge of securing and managing an extremely complex and rapidly expanding supply chain. With limited resources, they needed an automated and efficient solution to gain visibility into the cybersecurity risks presented by their partners. They selected the Risk Ledger platform to address this critical need.

By implementing Risk Ledger, NHS Test and Trace gained real-time visibility into its supply chain risks, identifying critical vulnerabilities and dependencies that extended multiple tiers deep. This allowed them to proactively work with suppliers to remediate issues, such as a widescale malware vulnerability, avoiding operational delays and strengthening their security posture. Risk Ledger provided the holistic view and direct communication tools needed to forge better supplier relationships and achieve a higher level of supply chain security with less demand on internal resources.
