Best Supply Chain Security Solution
OPSWAT was also named a finalist in the “Best Supply Chain Security Solution” category. OPSWAT’s MetaDefender Software Supply Chain addresses the critical software security market by providing visibility into vulnerabilities throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC). This product is essential in today’s environment due to the increasing complexity and dependency on third-party and open-source components, significantly impacting the attack surface. This product also addresses the growing demands and mandates for Software Bills of Materials (SBOM) as an integral part of software supply chain cyber-readiness.
OPSWAT’s solution combats threats such as malware, vulnerabilities, and hardcoded credentials embedded in source code. By ensuring transparency and integrity in the software development, MetaDefender Software Supply Chain protects against potentially devastating cyber-attacks, thereby securing the entire software supply chain against evolving threats.
The awards are judged by a panel of industry leaders, from sectors including healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, consulting, and education.
