The world is becoming more software-driven and while it’s helping accelerate innovation, it’s also increasing risk. Service providers, equipment manufacturers and the various suppliers in the information communications technology (ICT) industry are seeing a sharp rise in breaches and attacks through the infiltration of downstream suppliers of software as well as hardware, and professional services. However, a new process-based standard, SCS 9001, is in development by the members of TIA with the goal of helping businesses lock these attackers out. Due for release later in 2021, this new process-based standard is poised help companies and better protect their internal operations and identify verified trusted suppliers (and their suppliers’ suppliers) for network solutions. By certifying their internal operations and verifying trusted suppliers and products and services, life will soon be much harder and success far more expensive for the suspected nation-states and crime syndicates behind these devastating attacks. In addition, the standard will include a collection of security performance measurements for aggregation of anonymous benchmark results to help drive continual industry improvement. Join us as we discuss why this new industry standard is especially critical for new 5G and IoT networks that are aiming to connect everything from our coffee makers…

Being a logistics leader is no easy task. You need to manage complexity, continually optimize operations, make faster, smarter decisions, and always be prepared for anything, knowing that volatility can strike at any moment. Thankfully, you don’t have to go it alone. Join Uber Freight’s Steve Barber, Vice President of Product Management, and Shawn Piper, Director of Experience Design, along with Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Marty Parker, to tap into how supply chain and logistics leaders are leveraging transportation management systems (TMSes) to tackle rapidly-growing, complex operations head-on. Additionally, they’ll dive into: Key needs emerging across procurement, execution, visibility, payments, and insights as logistics leaders scale their operations How data-driven predictive and proactive experiences such as Insights AI can supercharge team productivity (especially if they’re directly built into your TMS) How TMS solutions are being reimagined to help transportation teams get—and stay—ahead of obstacles across modes and regions
