Imraan Bashir, Partner & National Public Sector Cyber Leader at KPMG in Canada, said the partnership enhances efficiency in mitigating cybersecurity threats. By combining KPMG’s public sector expertise with SecurityScorecard’s SCDR technology, the firms aim to improve supply chain security. “This agreement represents a step in strengthening supply chain security,” said Bashir.
