As the world faces the rising threat of software supply chain attacks, one of the highlights of my visit will be the Bangalore Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) Meetup. If you’re in Bangalore and in tech, business or public sector - I’d love to see you there!
Date: Sunday, 10 September, 2023 Time: 1-3pm Venue: CRED, Bangalore 👉 For details and to sign up see the Meetup page: https://www.meetup.com/bangalore-openssf-meetup-group/events/295692407/
🤝 Come along to hear the latest on pressing challenges and leading initiatives in software security, join the conversation, and take part in securing the OSS supply chain for you, your organisation and for the public good.
🛡️ I’ll share the latest news on OpenSSF’s global initiatives to secure the software supply chain – inc Alpha-Omega, SLSA, sigstore, SBOMs and more. Discover cutting-edge automated tooling, best practices, training and education - and how you and your organisation can access these resources and get involved.
🔎 Vandana Verma, Snyk, will present on Supply-chain Levels for Software Artifacts, or SLSA (“salsa”) – discover how to implement this framework to give confidence that software hasn’t been tampered with and can be securely traced back to its source.
✅ Hear and take part in an insightful panel discussion with software security experts including Snyk’s Vandana Verma and CRED’s Himanshu Das on topics including:
- Assessing the threats, developments in mitigating risk, and enhancing open source software resilience – in India and globally
- Examining tools and solutions we have today: Where do you start - SLSA, SBOMs etc - and where are the gaps?
- How members of OpenSSF and the open source ecosystem are working to further cybersecurity research, training and analysis, and address defects found in critical open source software projects
- Updates on regulatory developments
- How can the communities in India get involved with OpenSSF?
- What role will AI take, and more Plus Q&A, discussion, networking and refreshments
This is a free community meetup. All are welcome, but places are limited, so register today.
