Taking security and shifting it to the left allows organizations and projects to prevent errors and failures Open source software is everywhere, before a security incident happens. powering the languages, frameworks, and GitHub works hard to secure our community and applications your team uses every day. the open source software you use, build on, and contribute to. Through features, services, and security A study conducted by the Synopsys Center for Open initiatives, we provide the millions of open source Source Research and Innovation found that enterprise projects on GitHub—and the businesses that rely on software is now comprised of more than 90 percent them—with best practices to learn and leverage across open source code—and businesses are taking notice. their workflows. The State of Enterprise Open Source study by Red Hat confirmed that “95 percent of respondents say open source is strategically important” for organizations. Making code widely available has changed how Making open source software is built, with more reuse of code and complex more secure dependencies—but not without introducing security and compliance concerns.

They can even be GitHub Advisory Database, vulnerable the target of malicious actors who may try to use open dependency alerts, and Dependabot source code to introduce vulnerabilities downstream, attacking the software supply chain.

  • Practical Use of Approximate Hash Based Matching in Digital Investigations
    Digital Investigation 11 (2014) S18–S26 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Digital Investigation journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/diin Practical use of Approximate Hash Based Matching in digital investigations Petter Christian Bjelland*, Katrin Franke, André Årnes 1 Norwegian Information Security Laboratory (NISlab), Gjøvik University College, Norway abstract Keywords: Approximate Hash Based Matching (AHBM), also known as Fuzzy Hashing, is used to Digital forensics identify complex and unstructured data that has a certain amount of byte-level similarity. Approximate Matching Common use cases include the identification of updated versions of documents and Evidence analysis fragments recovered from memory or deleted files. Though several algorithms exist, there Data discovery has not yet been an extensive focus on its practical use in digital investigations. The paper Malware forensics addresses the research question: How can AHBM be applied in digital investigations? It fo- cuses on common scenarios in which AHBM can be applied, as well as the potential sig- nificance of its results. First, an assessment of AHBM for digital investigations with respect to existing algorithms and requirements for efficiency and precision is given. Then follows a description of scenarios in which it can be applied. The paper presents three modes of operation for Approximate Matching, namely searching, streaming and clustering. Each of the modes are tested in practical experiments. The results show that AHBM has great potential for helping investigators discover information based on data similarity. Three open source tools were implemented during the research leading up to this paper: Autopsy AHBM enables AHBM in an existing digital investigation framework, sddiff helps under- standing AHBM results through visualization, and makecluster improves analysis of graphs generated from large datasets by storing each disjunct cluster separately.
