Another good SBOM webinar

Cybeats is going to unleash the fourth in their great series of webinars on software bills of materials on November 30 from 1-2 Eastern Time. Here’s their description of this one:

Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) are beginning to arrive at critical infrastructure operators’ doors. The promises of much more rapid responses to cybersecurity vulnerabilities and other tangible benefits are waiting in the wings to be proven or disproven. What will be the impact of this new form of visibility and information sharing actually be?

Tune in on November 30th to learn more on how SBOMs may well prove critical to securing our critical infrastructures with our fourth episode of The State of Cybersecurity Industry: SBOMS impact on critical infrastructures.

The guests are:

·        Dr. Allan Friedman of CISA, leader of what was previously called the Software Component Transparency Initiative when he was at NTIA. The initiative continues, but its new contours will be discussed in December.

·        Ginger Wright of INL, my co-leader of the SBOM Energy Proof of Concept.

·        Tim Roxey, who has appeared in these posts a number of times in the past, and always has quite interesting things to say.

·        Chuck Brooks, who I only met recently but seems to have a good instinct for where the needle is moving in cybersecurity.

The event link is here. You don’t have to register, but they encourage you to; the button for that is on the same page.

See you then!
