High supply chain risk from complex software dependencies demands stringent supply chain security . European buyers face elevated supply chain risk as security software relies on layered third-party components and open-source libraries prone to compromise. Procurement teams must require detailed Software Bill of Materials, enforce continuous vulnerability scans, and include rapid incident notification clauses. Adopting multi-vendor sourcing for critical modules and conducting quarterly supply chain risk reviews aligned with NIS2 ensures resilience against supply chain attacks and maintains regulatory compliance
