Leadership to present on software supply chain security and Cyber Resilience Act compliance
KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU - Kusari, a software supply chain security startup, today announced the introduction of a new book, Securing the Software Supply Chain, and the company’s participation in multiple speaking engagements at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2025 in London from April 1-4, 2025. The team will showcase Kusari Platform innovations and open source initiatives at Stand #S482. Kusari is also co-hosting DevSecOnTheRocks, a premier networking event for the cloud native security community.
New Book by DevSecOps Community Experts
In writing Securing the Software Supply Chain, authors Michael Lieberman of Kusari and Brandon Lum of Google set out to help organizations enhance the way they secure their software development. This book is a comprehensive and essential resource that provides in-depth strategies and explanations for securing all aspects of the software supply chain, from upstream open source libraries to developer workstations and everything in between. Readers will learn how to analyze their current supply chain and make improvements with policies, automation, and monitoring. It is available now as a free eBook download on Kusari’s website.
Commitment to Open Source
Kusari’s technical experts welcome KubeCon EU participants to explore next-generation approaches to software supply chain security, centered around GUAC (Graph for Understanding Artifact Composition), OpenSSF’s new Open Source Project Security Baseline, and CNCF’s Security Technical Advisory Group Software Supply Chain Best Practices v2 white paper. Kusari team members are maintainers and contributors on these projects. With targeted attacks on development pipelines and new compliance regulations such as the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), it underscores the importance of securing software supply chains.
"As supply chain attacks continue to threaten organizations worldwide, Kusari is committed to delivering solutions that provide unprecedented transparency and security across the software development lifecycle," said Michael Lieberman, CTO & Co-Founder of Kusari. "KubeCon EU offers an invaluable opportunity to connect with the cloud native community and share our expertise in building more secure software ecosystems."
