  • The Changing Role Of SCA In Your Open Source Security Strategy, Feat. Forrester Jan 28 2021 6:00 pm UTC 43 mins
    Sandy Carielli, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, Gauthami Polasani, Senior Product Marketing
    With over 90% of your code now comprised of open source components, all application security strategies must aggressively address the risk from open source vulnerabilities. Open source is a key driver of innovation, but it also greatly expands the attack surface for malicious actors.

    Modern security teams face the dual challenge of addressing risks and minimizing the burden on engineering of time-consuming processes that slow down product velocity. While software composition analysis (SCA) offers enterprises a solution to monitoring, analyzing, and mitigating risk in their open source code, there is an increasing need for more consistent policy standards and much deeper integration into existing software development workflows to improve both engineering efficiency and code quality.

    Join FOSSA and guest Forrester as we discuss:
    - The role of automation and SCA in open source security
    - Managing vulnerabilities across security and engineering
    - The evolution of SCA from scanning to policy
    - How to evaluate and choose an SCA solution

  • How to Efficiently Manage OSS Security and Compliance Across Teams Recorded: Jan 14 2021 51 mins
    Valentina Ditoiu, Compliance Legal Lead, UiPath; Valentin Lupu, Sec Program Mgr, UiPath; Ryan Goldman, VP Marketing, FOSSA
    For modern product teams, trading off between productivity and efficiency is an absolute non-starter, especially when it comes to collaboration across different parts of the org. Working with open source software only complicates cross-functional workflows, since third-party code introduces so many variables and so much surface area for risk.

    In this webinar, leaders from UiPath will discuss the stream of interactions between Security, Engineering, and Legal in monitoring, investigating, and remediating open source vulnerability and license issues. We’ll cover how to promote joint SLAs and use automation tools like FOSSA, CI/CD pipelines, and tracking tools like Jira to reduce technical overhead and enable better results right in existing development processes. You’ll learn more about:
    - Why Security should build pipelines for automated code SCA scans
    - What info Legal needs to understand how OSS is used (e.g., repository structure)
    - How to convey data to Engineering to resolve compliance and security issues earlier

  • What is an OSPO? The Rise of the Open Source Program Office Recorded: Oct 24 2019 35 mins
    Taylor Udell, Director of Product Marketing at FOSSA
    Managing your open source program is all about improving efficiency and decreasing risk. Determining what packages to leverage, when developers should contribute, and what internal projects you may want to publish are all strategic business decisions. An Open Source Program Office (OSPO) helps to define your open source management strategy while considering the implications of open source components on product viability, competitiveness, resources, security and the risk profile of your company.

    In this webinar you will learn:
    ●Things to know when evaluating your need for an OSPO
    ●Areas managed by an OSPO
    ●Roles key to an OSPO's success
    ●The key pillars of a successful OSPO
    ●A list of resources to read if you want to build an OSPO

    FOSSA Director of Product Marketing Taylor Udell will share how getting the most from open source is not about how much code is deployed, but rather how about how developing the right open source management strategy can impact business goals, revenue, risk, recruiting and reputation. Move away from tactical, manual OSS management and into a strategic, holistic OSPO program that serves the needs of the company, your customers and your developers.
