ID.SC-3: Contracts with suppliers and third-party partners are used to implement appropriate measures designed to meet the objectives of an organization’s cybersecurity program and Cyber Supply Chain Risk Management Plan.

Oh no! No description found. But not to worry. Read from Tasks below how to advance this topic.

Based on the results of the cyber supply chain risk assessment, a contractual framework for suppliers and external partners shall be established to address sharing of sensitive information and distributed and interconnected ICT/OT products and services.
Guidance
- Entities not subject to the NIS legislation should consider business critical suppliers and third-party partners only.
- Keep in mind that GDPR requirements need to be fulfilled when business information contains personal data (applicable on all levels), i.e. security measures need to be addressed in the contractual framework.

Contractual ‘information security and cybersecurity’ requirements for suppliers and thirdparty partners shall be implemented to ensure a verifiable flaw remediation process, and to ensure the correction of flaws identified during ‘information security and cybersecurity’ testing and evaluation.
Guidance
- Information systems containing software (or firmware) affected by recently announced software flaws (and potential vulnerabilities resulting from those flaws) should be identified.
- Newly released security relevant patches, service packs, and hot fixes should be installed, and these patches, service packs, and hot fixes are tested for effectiveness and potential side effects on the organization’s information systems before installation. Flaws discovered during security assessments, continuous monitoring, incident response activities, or information system error handling are also addressed expeditiously. Flaw remediation should be incorporated into configuration management as an emergency change.

The organization shall establish contractual requirements permitting the organization to review the ‘information security and cybersecurity’ programs implemented by suppliers and third-party partners.

The ISMS component hierachy

When building an ISMS, it's important to understand the different levels of information hierarchy. Here's how Cyberday is structured.

Framework

Sets the overall compliance standard or regulation your organization needs to follow.

Requirements

Break down the framework into specific obligations that must be met.

Tasks

Concrete actions and activities your team carries out to satisfy each requirement.

Policies

Documented rules and practices that are created and maintained as a result of completing tasks.

Never duplicate effort. Do it once - improve compliance across frameworks.

Reach multi-framework compliance in the simplest possible way
Security frameworks tend to share the same core requirements - like risk management, backup, malware, personnel awareness or access management.
Cyberday maps all frameworks’ requirements into shared tasks - one single plan that improves all frameworks’ compliance.
Do it once - we automatically apply it to all current and future frameworks.
