Paul Davis joins us to talk about strategies to proactively defend your environment from the different types of attacks that target supply chains and package dependencies. We also discuss how to gain some of the time back by being smarter about how to manage packages and even where the responsibility for managing the security of packages should be.

Not all infosec advice is helpful. Bad advice wastes time, makes people less secure, and takes focus away from making software more secure. Bob Lord talks about his efforts to tamp down hacklore -- the security myths and mistakes that crop up in news stories and advice to users. He talks about how these myths come about, why they're harmful, and how they're related to the necessity of building software that's secure by design.
