Cybersecurity Insights with Contrast CISO David Lindner | 2/3

Insight #1

"CISA is establishing a supply chain security risk management office. I love it, it fits, and I hope we see even more of this in the future. Possibly an SBOM clearing house?"
 

Insight #2

"Security questionnaires are not providing the industry what we think they are. Most often the answers are wrong, or only for a specific portion of the in-scope architecture. Make sure your third-party vetting is based on more than these questionnaires."
 

Insight #3

"If I was being asked to generate an SBOM by a customer and I didn’t know where to start, I would start with CodeSec. You’ll be providing that SBOM in 3 simple steps."
