Protecting your device from cyberattack is essential to keep your or your clients' operation up and running. As you can see in the chart right, criminal cyberattacks are happening daily basis. It is often that such cyberattacks are prevented by security measure implemented in the organization's IT infrastructure or device itself. However, it does not mean that your device can keep vulnerabilities relying on other parties' security measure.
In May 2021, U.S. Executive Order EO14028 was issued, providing new cybersecurity guidance for products and services used within the federal government. This guidance incorporates software supply chain concepts and aims to provide visibility into software components embedded in products and services, manage risks such as vulnerabilities, and reduce cybersecurity risks.
As a specific measure, it is recommended to introduce and manage a software bill of materials (SBOM). In Japan, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry is in the process of formulating guidelines based on international standards for various industries including the automobile and medical industries, making it urgent for companies to manage their software supply chains using SBOM. It has become. However, although some companies have gone as far as creating an SBOM, there are also situations where there are issues with building the subsequent operational flow and managing risks using the SBOM.
Silex supports our customers to stay up-to-date against the vulnerabilities reported in CVE database and act accordingly.
