From Storefronts to Supply Chains:
The New Face of Retail Cyber Exposure Management

As the retail industry embraces digital transformation, they also face a rapidly expanding cyber threat landscape. From brick-and-mortar stores to e-commerce platforms and connected supply chains, every digital touchpoint becomes a potential entryway for attackers.

Cyber and Cyber-Physical Attacks

Retailers are prime targets for cybercriminals due to the volume of personal and financial data they handle. Point-of-sale (POS) malware, ransomware, credential theft, and phishing campaigns are widespread. Smart shelves, kiosks, HVAC systems, and security cameras, all part of retail’s cyber-physical environment, can be exploited to disrupt operations or pivot deeper into networks. These threats are growing more sophisticated with AI-enhanced attack methods that move faster than human response times.

Proliferation of Assets and Interconnected Supply Chains

Retail ecosystems today span thousands of devices, systems, and vendors, from in-store tablets and mobile apps to warehouse robotics and third-party delivery platforms. Every new device or connection adds complexity and increases the attack surface. A lack of unified visibility across these interconnected assets, especially third-party systems, creates blind spots that threat actors can exploit.

Evolving Regulatory Compliance Requirements

The regulatory landscape for retailers continues to evolve. From PCI DSS for payment systems to GDPR, CCPA, and emerging state-level and international regulations, retailers must ensure compliance across every customer touchpoint and backend process. Maintaining continuous compliance requires not just policy enforcement but real-time asset visibility, automated risk assessments, and proactive threat mitigation.

Retail Environments Require Complete Attack Surface Management to Monitor their Expanding Digital Worlds

The attack surface in the retail industry is constantly changing as assets are added or removed and as OS, apps, configurations and connections evolve over time.

Armis Centrix™, the AI driven cyber exposure management platform, overcomes the issues of siloed solutions in your retail environment and enables teams to quickly identify and remediate gaps – either manually or via automated workflows. With the right tools to deliver visibility in all cloud and on-prem environments, across all platforms, and for all assets and devices, you can see the whole attack surface in your retail network that needs to be protected and begin securing it.

Stay on Top of your Compliance and Adhere to Industry Standards

In the retail industry, the automatic evaluation of compliance with security policies and regulations, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), is an indispensable process. This systematic approach leverages advanced technology and software solutions to continuously monitor and assess a retailer’s adherence to these critical security standards. By doing so, it not only ensures the protection of sensitive customer data but also streamlines the often complex and evolving compliance requirements that retailers must meet.
