Today’s software relies heavily on reused components and automation tools, built by a vast network of contributors who may never meet. This supply chain approach speeds up development and can improve quality, but it also creates new security risks.

On 14 October, Senior DSV Lecturer Nicolas Harrand will unpack what happens when parts of the software supply chain go rogue. He will share real-world examples and explore what can be done to address these risks, offering perspectives on how organisations and developers might respond.
