Ken Westin, senior security analyst with Tripwire commented on the news that nearly half of Game of Thrones upcoming season has leaked online. He believes this is not a traditional hack where HBOs network was compromised, but an example of supply chain security in relation to data. The motion picture industry is compromised of multiple partnerships, no one studio does everything from beginning to end, things like effects, audio mastering, translation and subtitles and a whole host of other work may be farmed out to other entities.”]
