Rezension:
"Starting this book off with a proper threat model is precisely what's needed as a frame for such an important problem. Supply chain risk is complicated, it's changing quickly, and the defensive measures often involve multiple teams which drives up the complexity. The insights captured throughout this book are absolutely necessary for the state of software security today and having the proper context and frame of the problem space as you read it will help get the most of it."
--Robert Wood, CISO of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS)
"This is a very good book. It achieves something that I don't think anyone else has even attempted: provide an encyclopedic account of guidelines, best practices, regulations, and current efforts to secure the software supply chain. The best aspect of this book is that someone (like me) who is primarily involved with just one aspect of software supply chain security can benefit from a well-informed treatment of the subject from differen t aspects, yet still have a reference tool to return to later, when the need arises to learn about other topics within this already vast discipline."
--Tom Alrich
