The software supply chain faces a growing array of sophisticated threats that put critical government systems and national security at risk. “Adversaries are exploiting the entire development pipeline, including open-source dependencies, Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment environments, and third-party integrations. In fact, based on the latest DBIR report from Verizon, exploitation of CVEs has become the #1 way breaches are occurring at 24%, even higher than credential abuse (23%),” said RapidFort Chief Strategist, George Manuelian.

The Open Source Security Foundation reports that 70 percent of all software today is open source, and that 82 percent of those components are inherently risky due to poor maintenance, outdated code, or Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). Two independent reports confirm a 400% increase in software vulnerability exploits.
