"Digicert’s partnership with Reversinglabs advances supply chain security through threat detection and secrets protection delivered by automated workflows that seamlessly operate within Devops environments and CI/CD pipelines,” said Deepika Chauhan, Chief Product Officer at Digicert. “This newly combined solution protects against software-based vulnerabilities and attacks, helping organisations ensure digital trust and build confidence with their customers.”

"Reversinglabs is excited to partner with Digicert to help solve software supply chain security issues at all stages of the software development and deployment process,” said Mario Vuksan, CEO and Co-founder at Reversinglabs. “Every Digicert customer needs to think about the integrity of the software they build, buy or run. Our work together will strengthen the ecosystem and provide organisations with the necessary tools to ensure the trustworthiness of their software."

“Organisations must take proactive efforts to secure their software supply chain to withstand the continuing and evolving threats of cyber attacks,” said Katie Norton, Senior Research Analyst for IDC’s Devops & Devsecops research practices. “Digital trust strategies that centralise, standardise and unify software security practices play a key role in improving resiliency and user trust.”

Weaknesses in the software supply chain have been exploited in recent years, resulting in tampering, malware insertion and other threats to critical business software. A recent Reversinglabs survey found that nearly 90 percent of technology professionals detected significant risks in their software supply chain in the last year. More than 70 percent said that current application security solutions are not providing necessary protections.
