OM DETTA AVSNITT
Open source software promises cost savings and faster innovation, but the Department of Defense's approach to it is messier than most people realize. Host Matt Triner sits down with Hunter Strategy's Greg Vanore (Director of Software Engineering) and Nate Kingsley (CIO) to unpack the real risks: contributor license agreements that can sign away government-funded code, foreign ownership questions that don't always get consistent answers, and a supply chain that's only as trustworthy as its weakest link. They also dig into what's actually fixing the problem, from CI/CD pipelines to continuous ATO. This one gets spicy.Episode Chapters:
