A senior engineer's guide to FDA premarket cybersecurity for medical devices in 2026: section 524B, SBOM expectations, SPDF, and what reviewers actually ask about.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

Safeguard's new TPRM module replaces vendor questionnaires with SBOM-driven, continuous third-party risk assessment.
M&A due diligence runs on questionnaires that nobody can verify. Continuous asset discovery turns the diligence period into a data exercise.
What changed in SPDX 3.0 and the 3.0.1 patch release: the profile model, AI and dataset profiles, serialization choices, and what to migrate first.
An SBOM without VEX is a noise machine. Here is how disciplined VEX authoring cuts vulnerability backlogs by 70-90% while improving defensibility, not weakening it.
Where AI-BOM and ML-BOM specifications stand in 2026, which formats have real adoption, and what to capture today even if the standards are still in motion.
Your SBOMs come from a dozen vendors, three scanners, and two CI systems. Normalising them into one queryable graph is where SBOM programs actually succeed or fail.
An SBOM is a list. A reachability-prioritised SBOM is a triage queue. The difference determines whether the SBOM produces value or sits unread.
Mapping a running pod back to a service, repo, owner, and SBOM is the boring infrastructure that makes every other security control useful.
