According to the *[Symantec Internet Security Threat Report](https://www.symantec.com/content/dam/symantec/docs/reports/istr-23-executive-summary-en.pdf)*, supply chains were attacked every month in 2017, compared to an attack every four months in 2015. With the amount of cyber-threats constantly increasing; equipment manufacturers (OEMs) need to secure their devices and systems, but don't necessarily understand how to maintain protection for the long-term.
