One Year In: the Executive Order and Securing Software Supply Chains

This event qualifies for 1 CPEs

In response to the Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity published in May 2021, new mandates call for accelerating the adoption of secure open source software (OSS) and commercial off-the-shelf solutions to speed software delivery from years to minutes. Additionally, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has provided updated guidance for strengthening the security of critical software purchased by U.S. federal government programs from industry software suppliers and partners.

Join us for a panel discussion with experts from across the Federal defense agencies as they cover:

Key insights from the Executive Order on Cybersecurity
Latest directives from the DoD, NIST, and other Federal agencies on using and securing OSS
Role of the software bill of materials (SBOM) in securing your software supply chain
