Digital Statecraft, Digital Streetcraft

This discussion draws from Michael Daly’s work in intelligence to first define the supply chain and contextualize its importance; and secondly, to offer strategies for fortifying defenses against malicious attacks on the software it utilizes. Additionally, Michael stresses just how complex the supply chain has grown in the last decade alone. Add increasingly complex software to the mix (requiring millions of lines of code for even the simplest devices) and you’re looking at a pressing supply chain security problem. Host Trey Herr and guest Michael Daly discuss the following facets of supply chain software and more: Cryptographic hashing to legitimize code integrity. How to use ‘whitelisting’ to avoid potential malware trouble. The rise of cyber insurance and security services to combat threats. Why software and the supply chain is much more vulnerable now. ----- Key Links   Mitre ATT&CK Webpage    ----- Follow us on Linkedin Support the show on Patreon ----- Digital Statecraft, Digital Streetcraft is
