During this pre-KubeCon webinar, we will tackle the big questions that should be at the center of conversation at this year's event.

2025 is almost upon us.

During this pre-KubeCon online event, we will tackle the big questions that should be at the center of conversation at this year's event.

If over 90% of software deployed is open-source; what’s the difference between software security and software supply chain management? How can platform teams protect their organizations from attacks? How can you grasp control without impeding developer velocity?

It's time for engineering leaders to make their IDP tooling bets.

KubeCon is the opportunity to answer these big questions and share ideas.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the leading minds in the software supply chain management about the most pressing questions in the industry today ahead of the only event that matters.

 Policy Management - The Key to Unlocking a Secure Software Supply Chain

Join us as we explore the EU's Cyber Resilience Act, its potential impact on the OSS Community, and proactive measures you can take to prepare your team for its implementation. 

Nick Peacock

Senior Director, Customer Success

The European Parliament (EP) adopted a provisional version of the final text of the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) on March 12, 2024, with the final version expected to be signed and published in October.

The EU's CyberResilienceAct (CRA) proposes stringent cybersecurity requirements for digital products, aiming to bolster security against cyberattacks. While it promises safer hardware and software, it also raises questions for Open Source contributors and organizations. Will they be liable for vulnerabilities in their code? Could this legislation stifle innovation or foster it?

Join us in exploring these questions to understand how the CRA underscores the imperative for open source organizations to advocate for their interests in policymaking.

Antoine Tielbeke

DevOps Engineer

As DevOps evolves into platform engineering, the focus shifts to creating Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) that offer self-service capabilities to developers, reducing cognitive load and streamlining development processes. Platform engineers are tasked with creating a multi-tenant SaaS approach in order to have centralized standardization, control, and governance.

In this session we will explore why prioritizing artifact management is essential in advancing to self-service IDPs and how adoption of Cloudsmith offers solutions to common challenges such as high infrastructure costs, managing security vulnerabilities, and maintaining productivity. Attendees will gain insights into best practices of implementing an artifact repository at the center of their CI/CD pipeline.
