The Future of Software Supply Chain Transparency

March 8, 2022

The Future of Software Supply
The Software Supply Chain suffers from a noxious condition that leads to an absolute lack of
transparency. While the hardware world would have never developed without standardized
product composition information exchange across suppliers, somehow the Software

consequences of this shortcoming. The worst part of the recent LOG4J vulnerability was not

Trends in Task Automation

whitePaper | June 15, 2022

The global logistics industry of the 21st century has been defined by large global Logistics Service Providers (LSPs) investing in efficiency.
