Overheard on Defense in Depth
"In our business, only the paranoid survive, and we have to have a mindset. The mindset of zero trust is really a philosophical journey on the continued application of least privilege, multifactor authentication, identity, and access management. The mindset of attack surface management is continuously at machine speed validating that you’re defending what you should be defending." -- Nick Shevelyov, former CSO, Silicon Valley Bank

Open source software is just like any software, it can have vulnerabilities that need to be patched. But what makes open source so unique and problematic is its ubiquity. If a universal open source tool, has a critical vulnerability, it can have a ripple effect, like log4j did, across many applications.
In addition, realizing that open source programs are so widely used, malicious attackers will often taint open source software and let its common use take care of the distribution.
In this video, Mic McCully, field strategist, Snyk and I discuss these issues and more with regard to open source software. It’s all just a preview for our event happening this Friday August 5th, 2022 for Super Cyber Friday. Our topic of discussion will be
