Much, much more
This week’s show is brought to you by ExtraHop.
Extrahop’s Ted Driggs is this week’s sponsor guest – he was on the show about a year ago talking about how we should really start thinking about putting together software bills of behaviours as well as bills of material. Ted is back to tell us how that effort is progressing. As you’ll hear, a lot of the behavioural data on software already exists, but it’s being hoarded by different vendors.
Links to everything that we discussed are below and you can follow Patrick or Adam on Twitter if that’s your thing.
