Biden’s Cybersecurity Executive Order fuels seismic changes

Research from software supply chain management firm Sonatype has revealed that President Biden’s Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity has led to extensive changes in software development practices in the UK and US. The order stimulated adoption of a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), with 76% of enterprises implementing it. The research also revealed an increased emphasis on technologies for improving software supply chain management, though some companies have struggled due to a lack of resources and cost concerns.
