On September 14th, The White House published a memorandum addressing the state of the global software supply chain.

Frost & Sullivan analysts have published a new study into the changing landscape of software license enforcement, and how solution providers are helping software producers adapt to increased demand for SaaS deployments and intelligent devices. The software enforcement market is forecast to more than double over the next six years, as software suppliers transition from homegrown licensing to specialist third-party integrations that can improve entitlement management and monetization strategies. The following have been identified as key drivers in the rise of software license enforcement: H

Over the last few years, containers have become popular for software distribution and deployment, representing the innovation that software deployment desperately needed in a space where runtime environments are so fragmented. However, like any other disruption, this comes with its own challenges regarding software provenance – who added what to a container at what stage.

In this podcast Revenera experts break down the details of the two high severity OpenSSL vulnerabilities. Understand your next steps and what you should be doing to identify and remediate these issues.

The OpenSSL project announced on October 25, 2022 that it was releasing OpenSSL version 3.0.7 which will patch newly discovered vulnerabilities in current versions of OpenSSL. Patches were released today.   OpenSSL is the core open source library that implements SSL and TLS protocols which makes it possible to securely communicate over the internet. Does all of this sound familiar? Remember “Heartbleed (CVE-2014-0160)?” Multiple attacks in 2014 exploited the ”Heartbleed” software flaw in OpenSSL, allowing attackers to spy on Internet communications, steal data, and impersonate services.

Adoption of Software Bills of Material (SBoMs) is critical to securing the software supply chain and improving cybersecurity throughout the open source ecosystem. Watch this webinar to learn how to use SBoMs to effectively manage all your open source, third-party and commercial software, regardless of its origin in all software deployment models including on-prem and SaaS

While there are currently thousands of institutions around the globe that train people in software development, only a fraction of those focus directly on code security. Surprisingly, even though there is an 80:1 ratio between software developers and security specialists, many still believe that the responsibility to find and eradicate vulnerabilities is only on security experts.

Analyst firm Frost & Sullivan has published a new report into the evolution of software enforcement, detailing how publishers are increasingly moving away from homegrown licensing to embrace specialist third-party integrations.

Watch Revenera and a panel of experts to discuss trends in open source, regulatory changes, the criticality of implementing a Software Bill of Materials and what organizations should be doing, along with what’s happening in the software supply chain.
