Who this is for

Software supply chain professionals in mid-to-senior roles at product-led tech organizations, responsible for embedding security and compliance into CI/CD pipelines without slowing innovation.

Who this is not for

Junior developers just starting with dependency scanning, or auditors focused only on checkbox compliance.

What you walk away with

  • Produce SBOMs that are consistently referenced in cross-functional risk reviews
  • Align SBOM outputs with executive-level risk reporting formats
  • Reduce back-and-forth during audits using pre-validated SBOM patterns
  • Position yourself as the go-to practitioner for software transparency initiatives
  • Confidently lead SBOM conversations with vendor partners and internal stakeholders
