Michael Scovetta, Principal Security PM Manager, Microsoft Corporation, & Saša Zdjelar, Chief Trust Officer, ReversingLabs
In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, software supply chain security has emerged as a critical concern for organizations worldwide. High-profile breaches have highlighted the vulnerabilities that exist within the software supply chains, from third-party risks to open-source software dependencies, and the unique challenges these pose in a global context.
During this session, we will examine the strategies and best practices for mitigating these risks. This includes exploring the role of government regulations and international standards, the implementation of secure software development lifecycles (SSDLC), developing a culture of security awareness, the importance of continuous monitoring and end-to-end security measures. Finally, we will address the complexities of coordinating security efforts across diverse geographical locations and regulatory environments.
Our special guest speakers are Michael Scovetta, Principal Security PM Manager at Microsoft. Michael leads a team that allows Microsoft to use open-source software safely and Saša Zdjelar, Chief Trust Officer at Reversing Labs, which recently announced the release of a new supply chain security solution powered by AI. Together, Michael and Saša will explore the key issues with software supply chain security and what the industry can do to address this ever-increasing security concern.
Cristin Flynn Goodwin, Founder, Advancing Cyber & Advanced Cyber Law, & Emilian Papadopoulos, President, Good Harbor Security Risk Management
During this session we will explore the evolving regulatory environment that governs the intersection of privacy, artificial intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity. As these domains increasingly intertwine, they present unique challenges and opportunities for businesses, policymakers, and individuals alike. We will explore the critical balance between innovation and regulation, examining how new cybersecurity regulations from the SEC and various emerging AI governance frameworks globally are influencing the development and deployment of AI technologies, while ensuring the protection of individual privacy. The conversation will also address the escalating concerns around cybersecurity, especially in the context of AI-enhanced threats.
