It's Monday! Instead of blue, let's make it all green with scatool.com. Try now for free to see all green today. #DevSecOps #DevOps #SupplyChainSecurity #SBOM #AppSec
Thank you to Mary Grush of Campus Technology magazine for her interest in @apereo and the resurgence of #OpenSource in #HigherEd.
While institutions of #HigherEducation are now more dependent on #OSS than ever, their engagement with and support of both the projects and communities may be at an all-time low.
Several factors should prompt greater participation from campus leadership and IT departments: #SBOM, #CRA, the rise of academic #OSPO, grant/funding requirements (#OpenScience), etc.
Tomorrow morning I'll go to #EuroPython. I need to wake up early but I cannot sleep due to the excitement. Thinking about #SBOM in #Fedora-built #Python wheels instead. Will really need a lot of coffee this week.

So does the Compliance Industrial Complex. They've been planning for this. 's on the table when make-work becomes mandatory regulation.
I doubt small FOSS business'll get a piece of that pie easily. #SBOM game is already rigged to favor Big Tech.
But, I hope I'm wrong & you make a living from it!
Let's reserve the right to “I told you so” each other when one of us turns out wrong in 5-10 years.

Oh, I agree: confused users will request #SBOM's b/c they think they're useful (… even though they aren't).
My point is: we're still at a moment where we can influence actual implementation of CRA in practice (regulations are being written now).
The best approach? Convince regulators that complete, corresponding source &
@reproducible_builds are *actually* useful to customers for FOSS.
#SBOM's are only useful for proprietary software. SBOMs for FOSS is make-work.
@bagder Thanks for your post & your counter
I'm curious: you characterize the EU #CRA as requiring #SBOM's *specifically*. I know the License Compliance Industrial Complex wants it to be true, but I researched this issue for my #FOSDEM 2025 talk…
https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-6155-is-there-really-an-sbom-mandate-/
… & IIUC CRA *doesn't* specify SBOMs specifically.
IMO, if the vendor gives the customer complete, Corresponding Source & a 100% @reproducible_builds they've complied with CRA. No one has shown me anything that disproves that.
Is your company planning to start contributing to open source? My new post shares best practices for corporate upstream contributions, spanning things from legal compliance (CRA is coming!) to building reputation & quality: https://optimizedbyotto.com/post/best-practices-corporate-open-source-contributions/

I chatted with Philippe Ombredanne about Package URLs, or PURLs. He created them, so he knows a thing or two.
We do complain about CPE quite a bit :)
But it's a really hard problem. It feels like a package identifier should be easy, but it's way harder than you think it is. There's nobody better than Philippe to drop some knowledge.

Wenn #Cybersecurity genauso wichtig ist wie die Außenpolitik: Cyberbedrohungen machen genauso wenig wie die globalen Datenströme an den Staatsgrenzen Halt - deshalb gehört die #Cybersicherheit beim #G7-Gipfel mittlerweile genauso dazu wie die Außen- und Wirtschaftspolitik.
Dies haben die Leiter der Cybersicherheitsbehörden der G7-Staaten nun zum Anlass genommen, ein gemeinsames Konzept für eine #SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) für #KI-Systeme zu veröffentlichen:

Trump quietly throws out Biden-era #cyber #policies
Following Biden-era programs is now out or significantly rolled back:
- Requirement for federal #software vendors provide #SBOM gone
- Several #AI #cybersecurity research mandates, have been scrapped or deprioritized.
- Requirement that software contractors formally attest they followed secure development practices has been cut. Instead, #NIST will now coordinate a new industry consortium to review security guidelines.

Many organizations say they integrate security into CI/CD. But gaps remain: No policy enforcement

Back from a multi-day-long rabbit hole:
kasseapparat now builds multi-arch images using Docker Bake, with labels, annotations, and SBOMs – all signed and attested via Cosign in GitHub Actions.
Took way more test builds than expected . Now back to the fun part: building software.
