Software Supply Chain Management
Your overview from software component to deployment
In the fast-paced world of software product development, the efficiency and security of the software supply chain are critical. Developers and companies face enormous pressure driven by high stakeholder expectations, new feature rollouts, rapid development cycles, and strict security regulations. To meet these demands and remain competitive, companies must build a highly optimized software supply chain.
Challenges
Growing software companies face the challenge of scaling development without compromising security and compliance. Common issues include lack of automation, inefficient processes, security gaps, and compliance concerns that hinder progress. Limited visibility into open-source dependencies makes it harder to detect and fix vulnerabilities, leading to delayed product releases, longer development times, and legal risks.
Software vendors must provide a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) to meet the TR-03183 Cyber Resilience Requirements of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). Given the complexity and high rate of change in software products, automation is usually the only way to manage this effectively.
The personnel or (hardware) infrastructure is often insufficient to operate the services and tools required for the software supply chain securely according to defined standards.
Customized roadmap based on customer needs
In a workshop with our experts, we address individual customer requirements and develop a tailored roadmap. Our highly qualified team analyzes and documents existing processes, identifies improvement opportunities, and evaluates suitable tools together with the customer.
This approach enhances efficiency and security in the software supply chain by developing customized solutions and applying best practices. The supply chain is secured according to required security guidelines using methods such as automated SBOM creation and analysis, static and dynamic code analysis, and license checks for software libraries.
