This is the second white paper in a four-part series inspired by the inaugural NCR Atleos and Trellix Cyber Security Summit, held earlier this year at the Cyber Quarter in Dundee. The event brought together financial institutions, cybersecurity specialists, law enforcement representatives and academic experts to explore how the industry can stay ahead of an increasingly complex threat landscape. Building on the first white paper focused on the convergence of physical and digital security risks, this piece examines why operational resilience has become a board-level priority for financial institutions operating in a more connected, fast-moving risk environment.
The discussions highlighted that supply-chain risk is driven not only by technical dependencies but by misaligned risk appetites, uneven security maturity, and limited visibility across increasingly complex ecosystems. Strengthening supply-chain resilience requires proportionate assurance, shared accountability, cultural alignment, and sustained investment in both people and partners—ensuring security expectations are clear, practical, and achievable across organizations of all sizes.
