Silo Busting 16: Alex Gounares and Sam Rehman on Zero Trust and Supply Chain

Prepare yourself for an episode of Silo Busting with a tremendous amount of, as they say, yield. Alex Gounares, CEO of Polyverse Corporation, has returned pick up the zero-trust thread. This time around, he and Sam Rehman, our Chief Information Security Officer and SVP, are following their way down the security supply chain. Asks Gounares: “If you don’t know where your binaries are coming from and you don’t know where the source code is and you don’t know who built it, what do you do then?” The guys chat about choosing between open source and proprietary code, building your own Linux as opposed to getting polymorphic, adding noise to the system, the patience of some attackers, and sophisticated back doors. It’s the insightful sound of #CybersecurityByDesign, friends, and it’s good. Trust us.
