Location: Improving

We're kicking off 2017 with an amazing speaker who has studied the patterns and practices exhibited by 3000 high-performance software development organizations, and he's coming to Dallas to share the results.

This year, software development teams around the world are consuming BILLIONS of open source and third-party components. The good news: they are accelerating time to market. The bad news: 1 in 17 components they are using include known security vulnerabilities. Ugh.

This session aims to enlighten DevOps teams, security and development professionals by sharing results from the 2016 State of the Software Supply Chain Report -- a blend of public and proprietary data with expert research and analysis. Attendees in this session will learn:

- What our analysis of 25,000 applications reveals about the quality and security of software built with open source components

- How organizations like Mayo Clinic, Exxon, Capital One, the U.S. FDA and Intuit are utilizing the DevOps principles of software supply chain automation

- Why avoiding open source components over 3 years old might be a really good idea

- How to balance the need for speed with quality and security -- early in the development lifecycle

Attend this session and leverage the insights to understand how your organization's application DevOpsSec practices compare to others. We'll share the industry benchmarks to take back and discuss with your DevOps and development teams.
