And honestly, there's no way that you CAN'T put some level of trust in your suppliers. Whether it's AWS or Google Workspace or Windows or Microsoft365 or any of your anti-malware vendors or anything else, if they have a major outage, it's going to cripple your business for a while. They'll build terms into the contract about stability and reliability, but at the end of the day, if one of your critical suppliers fucks up, it's going to take you down. You pick the least bad of the options and pray.
