Software supply chain risk assessment: 8 steps to a secure SDLC
Like any chain, a software supply chain contains many links. These links consist of every actor involved in the development & deployment of your code in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). An actor can be the developers, infrastructure components, and even repositories like GitHub. A company might have a very secure supply chain. However, it will only be as strong as its weakest link.
Supply Chain Attack Fundamentals
Overview: Picture this: Your website included a 3rdparty component (such as a WordPress plug-in), and hackers used that as a backdoor to infiltrate your systems, which were secure on their own. This is a supply chain attack. Pollyfillio attack is a recent example of this where 100,000 websites were impacted last month. In this webinar, Vivekanand Gopalan (VP of Products - Indusface) and Phani Deepak Akella (VP of Marketing - Indusface) discuss strategy and tactics to protect your applications from supply chain attacks.
