Tuesday, December 5, 2023

ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 5, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- New research from Fortress Information Security shows software makers use a lot of code found on open-source platforms that they know very little about. Using available Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) for software commonly used by U.S. energy companies, the Fortress research team found more than a thousand components coming from developers in adversarial nation-states like Russia and China. Additionally, some of the potentially compromised contributions can sit, unpatched, for years before being addressed.

Key Points: 
  • Using available Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) for software commonly used by U.S. energy companies, the Fortress research team found more than a thousand components coming from developers in adversarial nation-states like Russia and China.
  • The Fortress researchers detailed their findings in a new report, A Software Supply Chain Dependent on Adversaries ( link ).
  • Software with Russian or Chinese-made code examined by Fortress research is 2.25 times more likely to have vulnerabilities.
  • But, until we have confidence secure by design software that isn't laced with malicious code, every software product could contain a ticking time bomb.
