Fortifying the Startup Supply Chain: Secure and Cost-Effective Strategies that Won't Break the Bank --- This paper aims to address the urgent need for supply chain security in startups. With increasing examples of substantial impacts due to supply chain risks, from the Target attack to the recent Moveit vulnerability, it's clear that security is not a luxury, but a necessity. However, many startups, while acknowledging the importance of security, struggle to allocate substantial resources towards it due to cost constraints. This paper aims to bridge this gap by providing an array of cost-effective and implementable strategies for startups to secure their supply chains.The proposed strategies include what exactly to keep in mind when working with vendors, which open-source tools to use, what kind of cost effective audits you can perform, & more. The paper underscores that with few security experts to set up and manage these tools, startups can fortify their supply chains without breaking the bank, thereby gaining customer trust and ensuring business continuity
