SBOM's Impact on Enterprise DevOps

Hi Everyone,
After a great event last week, let's do it again! On Friday, November 12, at 1 PM EST, we are excited to announce our next Virtual Meetup! This time around we welcome a new speaker and sponsor, JFrog.

SBOMs Impact on Enterprise DevOps?
When the White House’s cybersecurity executive order from May 2021 was issued, the Software Bill of Materials (aka SBOMs), graduated from being a “nice to have” to a “must-have” when developing and deploying secure software from the cloud.
In a nutshell, SBOMs provide visibility into which components make up a piece of software and detail how it was put together, so it's easy to determine if it contains security and compliance issues.

In this talk, we’ll discuss:

What exactly is an SBOM?
Securing your Software Supply Chain
Why SBOM must be a key element of your software development life cycle's (SDLC) security and compliance approach
The misconceptions that exist around SBOMs
Insights and best practices on SBOM creation and usage.
