Tracy Ragan discusses software supply chain management and the importance of generating and consuming Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) in decoupled architectures. She explains the challenges of managing libraries and dependencies in microservices and the need for aggregated SBOMs. Tracy emphasizes the importance of rapid response to vulnerabilities and the value of SBOMs in facilitating this response. She also discusses the requirements and industries for SBOMs and the role of SBOMs in analyzing and securing open source and commercial software.
Tracy introduces DeployHub as a DevSecOps evidence store that helps teams gain confidence in the use and consumption of open source software and enables rapid response to vulnerabilities.
