Lessons from CrowdStrike’s buggy update: the critical importance of robust release processes

Recent events involving CrowdStrike’s Falcon security software have underscored a critical lesson across the industry: the importance of having a robust, secure release process. Such incidents serve as a reminder of the consequences that can result from issues in software updates. These consequences can affect a wide range of critical industries and services, from government agencies and financial institutions to healthcare systems and emergency services.

The 7th annual Open Source Management & OSPO survey is now accepting responses!

This survey is part of a research project to better understand the state and evolution of open source management within organizations and OSPO trends operating across sectors and regions. The core audience includes Open Source Program Office (OSPO) managers, C-level executives, CTOs, and other roles within organizations involved in the organization’s open source engagement.
