RISK & SECURITY DEVOPS MODERN ARCHITECTURE TECHNICAL DEBT IT LEADERSHIP




An Open Source Risk Sherpa
Open source software (OSS) has clearly become ubiquitous with over 70% of applications utilizing open source components according to Gartner. Although this is helping organizations dramatically reduce the time to market of delivering software, Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) within OSS components continue to be a significant risk. For example, the Heartbleed vulnerability affected over 66% of all active websites in the world with an estimated cost of almost $500 million to fix it.

CliffsNotes for Open Source Licensing
Organizations everywhere are adopting the use of open-source software components at a high rate within their custom-built software applications to speed up the development process. However, this introduces risks such as the legal implications of the open-source license attached to open source components which governs how it can be used legally. The legal requirements of these licenses can be complex and confusing for individuals without expertise in intellectual property laws. What if there were an easier way to interpret the requirements of an open source license without needing a degree in intellectual property law?

What about Shift Left for Cloud?
There has been a lot of discussion about the concept of “Shift Left” when developing modern software. Shift Left is a practice commonly used in Agile software development that intends to find and prevent defects earlier in the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Typically, Shift Left is focused on defects such as security vulnerabilities, code quality, and compliance. But, what about also shifting left something more forward thinking, such as cloud readiness?
