SBOMs The New Standard in Supply Chain Security - DevOpsCon NY 2022

Software supply chain attacks using software vulnerabilities remain a key avenue of initial access for attackers Organizations had to scramble to find out if critical vulnerabilities like Log4J were running on their systems. In response, Software Bill of Materials or SBOMs are being quickly adopted by enterprises around the globe, so what are they all about? The Linux Foundation research team revealed that 78% of organizations expect to produce or consume the Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) in 2022.

Secure Your Software Supply Chain Using Observability Webinar

Fequent software supply chain attacks are becoming the new normal for developers and security professionals everywhere. Even though it’s still relatively new, observability has continued to gain momentum as a way to identify software supply chain issues before they become a major disruption. Having access to the right data at the right time is necessary to make decisions about priorities. We’ve assembled a panel of experts from software, security, and data to talk about observability and what it means to your software supply chain security

Securing software supply chain without panicking ft. Chainguard co-founder Kim Lewandowski

Chainguard co-founder, Kim Lewandowski joins Rob to discuss the ways she presses forward in the fear-driven world of software supply chain security. In any kind of mistake or failure, security breaches have to be something that we can learn from. On the other hand, particularly during investigation, there are often walls of trust and other factors affecting fully transparent communication. Does this impact our ability to learn? Is there something we have to do differently to get better at it?

Code signing: securing against supply chain vulnerabilities

When creating an application, developers often rely on many different tools, programs, and people. This collection of agents and actors involved in the software development lifecycle (SDLC) is called the software supply chain. The software supply chain refers to anything that touches or influences applications during development, production, and deployment — including developers, dependencies, network interfaces, and DevOps practices.

Taming the supply chain: Addressing vendor risks to the nth tier

Vendor risk ranks alongside cybersecurity, compliance, reputational, and financial risks as one of the top risks to any organization. With any risk, you need to identify, monitor, and mitigate that risk, especially when it comes to your supply chain. The question for someone in my role as a senior manager of compliance management is: What level of risk is being posed and why? Stated another way: Do I really know what my supply chain is doing?

Software supply chain: What it is and how to keep it secure

As shortages of consumer goods and rising prices caused by bottlenecks in international supply networks have become more common, the global supply chain and its vulnerabilities have been top of mind for many. For developers, several high-profile software security exploits have recently underscored the risks inherent in a similar type of supplier network: the software supply chain.

Securing the Software Development Build

Tim Brown, SolarWind CISO and VP, Security, explains how SolarWinds is ensuring the integrity of the build process and how we share learnings with our partners, community, and customers; as well as how we're leveraging and contributing to open-source initiatives and lead by example in securing the supply chain.

Anatomy of a Supply Chain Attack Detection and Response

In today's world of global supply chains, a breach never stops at a supplier level but cascades all the way up the chain. So being able to detect and stop a supply chain attack at an early stage before an attacker exfiltrates confidential company data or damages company operations and reputation is critical to your organization's survival. Luckily, hackers always leave a trace, so proper detection can help you stop breaches at an early stage before hackers achieve their goals.
