When Software Becomes Business Risk: Governing Dependency Exposure at Scale - 28 de mayo de 2026 - TecnoWebinars.com

Modern application risk is no longer just a security problem. It is a governance challenge. Today’s software is built on constantly shifting layers of open source, AI components, and transitive dependencies. Yet most organizations still measure risk through static vulnerability counts, missing the bigger picture: how exposure accumulates over time, how delays in updates increase operational risk, and how fragmented tooling creates blind spots across the development lifecycle. In this session, Jamie Tanna, Senior Developer & Open Source Project maintainer at Mend.io, and Amir Shahmiri, Senior Solutions Engineer at Mend.io, explore a new approach to application security, one that treats dependency management as a continuous, organization-wide risk governance problem. They will break down why traditional methods fail at scale, how unmanaged dependencies quietly increase both security and business exposure, and what it takes to move from reactive fixing to proactive control. The discussion will highlight how leading teams are using automation to continuously detect, prioritize, remediate, and monitor risk across their software supply chain, turning what was once a bottleneck into a scalable, developer-friendly process. This includes approaches such as automated dependency updates, where solutions like Mend Renovate help teams stay continuously up to date without disrupting engineering velocity. In this session, you’ll learn how to: -Shift from vulnerability counts to a true understanding of application and dependency risk -Identify how outdated dependencies silently increase security and operational exposure -Build a continuous risk governance model across your software lifecycle -Use automation to reduce risk without slowing down developers -Communicate software risk in a way that resonates with leadership and the business
