Linux distros need to take more responsibility for security - InfoWorld
Between the rapid release of open source software, and modern OSes preloaded with packages, enterprises are vulnerable to attacks they aren’t even aware of.
You're viewing a single thread.
This article lacks focus and mixes unrelated security concepts in questionable ways. It ends like just an ad for Wolfi. Don't get me wrong, Wolfi is neat, it's probably deserving of being talked up. But it doesn't solve the supply-chain issues pointed out by the article (it doesn't even try). Supply-chain attacks are currently not a major issue in Linux distributions, and enterprises are already tackling the issue of provenance elsewhere, and the article itself notes that. Dependency management for enterprise software is NOT the responsibility of Linux distros. So what is the point of the article? To me, this article is security mumble jumbo.
