For over a hundred years, traditional standards organizations have made modern life better through the establishment of guidelines that are all around us, the four main standard categories being product, service, process and management. Over the last two decades, open source software has emerged from an initial focus on operating system to virtually every part of the software stack, and established de-facto 'standards' which have reshaped the IT ecosystem. Today it’s possible to make an open source product that does not comply with many open standards, and it’s possible to make closed source products that use open standards heavily. What is the right balance between open source and open standards today? Concerns about the security of the modern software supply chain add new complexity to this complex equation. Please join this session for an up-to-the-minute look at how both the open source community and standards organizations are working to improve cybersecurity.
