Runtime SBOM vs. Build-Time SBOM: Which Do You Actually Need?
Build-time SBOMs capture what goes into your software; runtime SBOMs capture what actually runs. Understanding the difference is critical for accurate vulnerability management.
Japan's Approach to Cybersecurity and Software Supply Chain Security
Japan is rapidly building cybersecurity policy around software supply chain risk. Here's what the regulatory landscape looks like and where it's headed.
What is a Security Gate
A security gate blocks a build or deploy the moment it fails a policy check. Here's what gates actually check, where to place them, and why most fail.

The Software Transparency Act of 2026: What It Means for the Industry
Proposed legislation would require SBOMs for all critical infrastructure software. Here's a detailed analysis of the bill and its implications.
What is Risk Scoring
Vulnerability risk scoring ranks flaws by real exploitability and exposure, not just CVSS severity. Here's how it works and why it matters.
What is Vulnerability Triage
Vulnerability triage ranks scanner findings by real exploitability and exposure, not raw CVSS score, turning an unmanageable backlog into a short, defensible fix list.
What is a Golden Image
A golden image is the hardened template every server and container is cloned from — powerful for consistency, dangerous when it goes stale. Here's how to secure it.
What is Admission Control (Kubernetes)
Admission control is the last checkpoint in Kubernetes before an object is written to etcd — here's how webhooks, PSA, and policy engines enforce it.
How to Structure an SBOM Review Process
Build a repeatable SBOM review workflow that catches license risks, stale dependencies, and unexpected components before they ship to customers.
Supply Chain Risk Scoring Algorithms: How They Work and Where They Fail
Risk scoring turns complex supply chain data into actionable numbers. But the algorithms behind these scores have assumptions and blind spots that security teams must understand.
