In this episode of Below the Surface, host Paul Asadoorian is joined by Brian Mullen, head of SSDLC at AMI, to discuss the complexities of supply chain and firmware security. They explore the challenges of maintaining security in a complicated supply chain, the importance of proactive and reactive security measures, and the implications of end-of-life software. The conversation also touches on the gaming industry's push for secure boot, recent vulnerabilities discovered in firmware, and the role of BMCs in security. Brian shares insights into AMI's approach to vulnerability management and the future of firmware security, including the significance of Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs).
