The lack of vulnerability control leads to organizational harm in global businesses when the exploitation of a weakness occurs. How can a global supply chain protect itself from vulnerabilities that can damage their brand and their physical property? In this qualitative case study the author shows how a multi-site corporation can use a method to learn what the vulnerabilities are in a single facility and use a framework to methodically scale the controls needed to mitigate vulnerabilities across the supply chain. This framework allows leadership to keep cost in mind so that the highest vulnerabilities are mitigated as a priority. A team of security experts was used to capture data in framework used for analysis. This framework was then used strategically to reduce the overall risk of threat vectors in the global organization.

As the supply chains become more global, the operations (such as procurement, production, warehousing, sales, and forecasting) must be managed with consideration of the global factors. International trade is one of these factors affecting the global supply chain operations. Estimating the future trade volumes of certain products for specific markets can help companies to adjust their own global supply chain operations and strategies. However, in today's competitive and complex global supply chain environments, making accurate forecasts has become significantly difficult. In this chapter, the authors present a novel big data analytics methodology to accurately forecast international trade volumes between countries for specific products. The methodology uses various open data sources and employs random forest and artificial neural networks. To demonstrate the effectiveness of their proposed methodology, the authors present a case study of forecasting the export volume of refrigerators and freezers from Turkey to United Kingdom. The results showed that the proposed methodology provides effective forecasts.
