The software development lifecycle (SDLC) is not immune to compromise. In fact, it has
emerged as a favored attack vector, acting as the perfect Trojan into your organization and
your customers as it is inherently trusted, has access, and is not inspected by other
security controls.
As a digital business, you are both developing and deploying software to optimize your
business processes. Whether sourced from commercial Trusted Publishers, Open-Source
Software (OSS), or through Internal engineering efforts, this software supply chain isn’t
always vetted to the level it should be. This ecosystem of third-party software suppliers is
not accountable for the risk they could pose to your business, you are.
SOLUTION BRIEF
Challenges
The compromise of SolarWinds’ Orion software is the latest example of how advanced
attackers can successfully circumvent traditional security controls, and in this case place
backdoor software into unsuspecting organizations through an otherwise trusted channel.
Unfortunately, existing security solutions are limited to the discovery of vulnerabilities,
open source licensing violations, or coding defects. They are not addressing the actual
malware that may be unsuspectedly built into the code, maliciously injected into the code,
or abused certificates intent on exploiting trust. When this software is placed into
production, malware has successfully infiltrated the organization. And these cyber risks
can lead to operational downtime, productivity loss, data loss, and reduced trust.
