Gartner predicts that by 2025, 45 percent of organizations worldwide will have experienced attacks on their software supply chains, a three-fold increase from 2021.
“In the era of DevOps – fast and continuous development – you simply cannot secure software from the outside,” says Guy Podjarny, founder of Snyk. “Fundamentally, the only way to keep up with the pace of software change is to get developers actually building secure software, and move the security to be where the decision is made.”
While formal interactions between defenders and business leaders are becoming more frequent, according to the World Economic Forum, increased communication and collaboration between developers and security professionals must also become a priority.
Digital transformation, hybrid and remote work, and the escalating threat of cybercrime have forced organizations to rethink how they view security in relation to their software supply chains.
