Cyber risk has become a topic of core strategic concern for business and government leaders worldwide and is an essential component of an enterprise risk management strategy. The Software and Supply Chain Assurance Forum (SSCA) provides a venue for government, industry, and academic participants from around the world to share their knowledge and expertise regarding software and supply chain risks, effective practices and mitigation strategies, tools and technologies, and any gaps related to the people, processes, or technologies involved. The effort is co-led by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Defense (DoD), and on occasion, the General Services Administration (GSA). Participants represent a diverse group of career professionals from government, industry, and academia, including: chief information security officers, cybersecurity and supply chain specialties, system administrators, engineers, consultants, vendors, software developers, managers, analysts, and many more fields.

 

Thank you and Happy New Year,

SSCA Team
