While many organizations focus on securing their own systems, a growing number of breaches originate far beyond their direct control — within their software and supplier ecosystems.

In the Darknet, the consequences are already visible: access to corporate networks, sensitive data, and internal systems are actively traded — often without the affected companies even being aware until it is too late.

This talk connects two worlds that are rarely considered together: the hidden dynamics of modern supply chains and the very real marketplace of compromised data. Using real examples from security incidents and Darknet forums, it illustrates how seemingly minor vulnerabilities in dependencies or open-source components can evolve into serious business risks.

Rather than focusing on technical details, this session provides a strategic perspective on how these risks emerge and why traditional security approaches often fall short. Attendees will be challenged to rethink how they approach supply chain security — not as an abstract technical challenge, but as a critical factor for organizational resilience in an increasingly interconnected world.
