Packaging Leader Mitigates $7.2M in Cyber Risk By Prioritizing Investment with Quantified Action Plan

The Resilience Edge solution provided a financially-driven roadmap to prioritize threats, enabling the client to make smarter security investments that dramatically reduced risk.

BACKGROUND

Protecting a $3B Global Supply Chain and Logistics Network

As a $3B global packaging supplier operating across manufacturing, logistics, and distribution, the company faced complex cyber risks across its worldwide footprint. With operations deeply tied to supply chain continuity, safeguarding digital infrastructure was critical to maintaining business stability and trust.

CHALLENGE

Translating Technical Risks into Board-Level Business Terms

With a distributed business model and growing third-party exposure, the security team needed to strengthen vendor oversight and prepare for emerging threats. Their biggest hurdle was translating technical risk into clear financial terms to drive alignment and action at the executive and board levels.

SOLUTION

Prioritizing Security Investments Based on Quantified Financial Impact

The company used the Resilience Edge platform to create a financially prioritized Cyber Action Plan, guiding investment in high-impact controls like encryption and role-based access. Breach and Attack Simulations tested their defenses, while vendor monitoring and a Resilience-led tabletop exercise strengthened supply chain readiness and incident response.

RESULTS

$7.2M Risk Reduced, Board-Level Buy-In Secured

The company eliminated over $7.2 million in potential cyber risk and cut extreme loss exposure by 50% through targeted controls. Cybersecurity evolved from a technical concern to a boardroom priority, backed by clear, data-driven outcomes.
