Cybersecurity hobbyists and professionals alike can learn new skills in an exhilarating new free cybersecurity webinar. Gene Moody, Field CTO at Action1, will be taking the helm on this session. This educational webinar will cover how to recognize these hazards and adopt strong, smart safety solutions with tools that your community can keep up with. We want participants to walk away with practical takeaways that they can start using the very next day.
The event aims to equip attendees with knowledge on when to utilize community repositories versus opting for direct vendor solutions. Our own Gene Moody will be hands on to help steer participants through critical subjects. They will be better equipped to identify underlying hazards, establish safety measures, and prioritize improvements.
Key Takeaways from the Webinar
The session will be a deep dive into the many practical ways we can address software dependencies. Through real-world examples, attendees will learn to spot the risks that are not obvious at first glance but can be very destructive. By understanding these risks, they can make informed decisions when selecting between community tools, vendor sources, or a combination of both.
Finally, the webinar will go into some key safety check techniques like source pinning, allow-lists, and hash/signature verification. These methods are key for making sure that the software we’re using is safe from supply chain threats and secure by design.
Additionally, participants will understand how to prioritize areas for update by using known vulnerability data (KEV) to their advantage. This knowledge will help guide them to tackle the biggest security threats first and with the greatest impact.
