Beyond the Perimeter: Securing What You Don’t Control
As software and hardware supply chains grow more complex and globally interconnected, they have also become prime targets for attackers. From deeply embedded vulnerabilities in third-party components to subtle software compromises and counterfeit hardware, today’s supply chain threats are stealthy, sophisticated, and increasingly difficult to detect.
Join us for a focused 3-hour forum where experts and practitioners tackle one of cybersecurity’s most pressing challenges: how to secure the digital supply chain from code to component.
This forum brings together offensive and defensive insights from the field — grounded in hands-on experience — to equip you with practical strategies, tools, and frameworks to:
Identify and mitigate hidden risks introduced by third-party software and hardware
Conduct technical product security testing and risk analysis at scale
Perform static firmware analysis and deconstruct proprietary protocols
Evaluate vendors and technologies using SBOMs and modern risk methodologies
Build a mature, resilient supply chain risk management program
Engage with key stakeholders to align procurement, contracting, and security goals
Whether you’re in the trenches dissecting firmware or leading enterprise risk discussions with executives and suppliers, this forum is designed to help you enhance your supply chain security.
