Some people don't understand how critical it is to secure their supply chain. After all, for most companies it's not as if lives will be put on the line if their competitors get unauthorized access to the supply chain, right?
But securing your supply chain is critical. If you don't, a competitor can exploit weaknesses and steal some of your customers. Just ask yourself, what would happen if one of your competitors were able to access your prices by using one of your customers' systems. They could set their prices lower than yours and grab part of your market. Companies need to secure their own systems and ensure their trading partners are doing so as well. Before you roll-out RFID throughout your supply chain, you need to understand the potential security risks and how to reduce vulnerabilities. After all, your confidential information is only as secure as the weakest link.
