Course Overview
The Supply Chain Security & SBOM programme is a mentor-led course designed to help professionals secure modern software delivery pipelines. With increasing reliance on third-party components and open-source dependencies, understanding and managing supply chain risk is essential for maintaining secure and resilient systems.
Through practical scenarios, learners will explore key frameworks such as SLSA and secure software development practices aligned with SSDF principles. The course introduces Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) concepts and demonstrates how organisations can gain visibility into dependencies and vulnerabilities across their environments.
Participants will gain hands-on experience with dependency scanning tools, CI/CD pipeline security, and risk mitigation strategies. By the end of the programme, learners will be able to implement end-to-end supply chain security controls and contribute to secure software engineering and DevSecOps initiatives.
