Managing your open source supply chain—Why and how? (Nikolay Harutyunyan, IEEE Computer)

I’m happy to report that the eigth article in the open source column of IEEE Computer has been published.

Abstract: More than 90% of software products include open source components, most of which are not directly added by your own developers. Instead, they are an inseparable part of the software supply chains that virtually all companies depend on. This article covers the related risks of ungoverned open source use and provides industry best practices to practitioners.

As always, the article is freely available (local copy).
