A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is essentially an inventory of the components used to build a software artifact, such as an application. While the concept of tracking an application’s components is not new, its importance has grown in recent years due to the rising threat of software supply chain attacks. One significant example is the SolarWinds attack, which highlighted how threat actors are increasingly targeting vulnerabilities in software components during the delivery process.

The role of the сhief information officer (CIO) has transformed over the years, extending beyond traditional technical responsibilities.

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has already become the defining technology of the 2020s, with users embracing it to do everything from designing travel itineraries to creating music. Today’s software developers are leveraging GenAI en masse to write code, reducing their workload and helping reclaim their valuable time. However, it’s important developers account for potential security risks that can be introduced through GenAI coding tools.

First, I want to make sure we’re all on the same page. Special category data is personal data that is considered sensitive and requires additional safeguards when processed, as it can have a significant impact on an individual's life.

We are living in the era of Kubernetes. It is hard to find anyone who has not heard of it and in all likelihood you are using it, too. And if you are using Kubernetes, it is probably also safe to assume that you areusing CI/CD to deploy your applications into it. However, as CI/CD and Kubernetes have grown in popularity, the number of bad actors looking to exploit weaknesses in them has grown too.

The Sysdig Windows agent is a game-changer for cloud infrastructure, particularly when it comes to securing Windows containers in Kubernetes environments. While many endpoint protection agents are designed to provide security for traditional Windows hosts, Sysdig goes a step further by incorporating Kubernetes-specific context into its system introspection.
