A new open framework seeks to outline a comprehensive and actionable way for businesses and security teams to understand attacker behaviors and techniques specifically impacting the software supply chain. The Open Software Supply Chain Attack Reference (OSC&R) initiative, led by OX Security, evaluates software supply chain security threats, covering a wide range of attack vectors including vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and components, supply chain attacks on build and deployment systems, and compromised or malicious software updates. Cybersecurity professionals among the matrix’s founding consortium include representatives from GitLab as well as former leaders from Microsoft, Google Cloud, Check Point Technologies, and OWASP.
