Summary
America’s largest retailers rely on an ecosystem of partners and outside resources to source, move, and deliver goods to consumers. Even modest interruptions can have substantial cascading effects, and it is why retailers constantly assess risk and build redundancy and flexibility into their operations.
The current war in Ukraine presents substantial risks to these businesses with direct and indirect threats arising from the conflict. Ranking high in the near- and mid-term, is the risk of cyber-attacks on individual retail businesses, their partners, and elements of critical infrastructure. Therefore, retailers are looking for information useful to evaluating their practices and developing mitigation strategies to limit their risk.
