Nursing & Midwifery Council to use Rizikon Assurance from Crossword Cybersecurity PLC to Automate Supplier Onboarding and Improve Supplier Risk Management
27 June 2019 - London, UK - Crossword Cybersecurity plc (AIM: CCS) has today announced that the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), will use Rizikon Assurance to automate its supplier onboarding process and manage ongoing supplier risk. The NMC is the regulator of over 690,000 nurses, midwives and nursing associates across the UK.
All organisations need their suppliers to provide assurance that they have sufficient controls in place to manage financial, operational and regulatory risk. The NMC, which has over 600 suppliers, will replace its manual paper-based processes with Rizikon Assurance to improve its supplier onboarding process and learn more about its supply chain. It will help them to assess and visualise the risk of each supplier more effectively and identify risks in their supply chain as a whole using Rizikon Assurance's unique 360-degree Risk Scorecard.
Currently, suppliers communicate via email, scanned forms and phone calls to complete the supplier onboarding process, which can be time-consuming and resource intensive. Rizikon Assurance automates the supplier onboarding workflow, provides standardised questionnaires, and provides a scalable secure centralised platform for the collection, review and sharing of compliance data.

On his return to England, he comes across other odd things going on -
– strange events at a Hampshire golf club;
– in the Atlantic ocean, a Royal Navy missile test goes unexpectedly wrong;
– there are anomalies with the gold bars in the Bank of England's gold vault;
– a huge crash causes the abandonment of a Formula One race meeting;
– the weights recorded at a boxing match weigh-in are disputed;
– wild rumours are spreading on the social media pages of weight-loss groups.
It is with a great sense of disbelief that he slowly begins to realise that these are all connected to the sudden, and unannounced, shift in the orbit of the International Space Station and worldwide GPS problems.
With hardly a clue to be seen, he needs every ounce of his ingenuity as he tracks down the sec
