Ensuring Security Across Digital Supply Chain

In this modern digitalization era, we see a complete shift of supply chains into digital technology, creating an intricate maze for consumption. The digitization of supply chains also reveals their weaknesses making them vulnerable to numerous threats of cybersecurity. However, this pays off greatly in terms of the innovative productivity it brings about in the realm of sustainability. This study seeks to assess the challenges and possible solutions that guarantee security within the digital supply chains. Topics explored include cybersecurity threats and challenges to collaboration, regulatory compliance, and best practices; research methods include document analysis, focus groups, and interview. Findings prominently support strong cybersecurity measures, stakeholder cooperation, regulatory compliance, and ongoing security posture monitoring. Options include employee training, supplier risk management, and a security-conscious culture, all of which could strengthen digital supply chains against the effects of cyberattacks. The study will elucidate an interesting view on security issues in a digital supply chain in Industry 4.0 across diverse industrial sectors. © 2025 selection and editorial matter, Saurabh Tiwari and Richa Goel; individual chapters, the contributors.
