Virtual Event Today: Attack Surface Management Summit

SecurityWeek's 2026 Attack Surface Management Summit runs today as a virtual event covering asset discovery, SBOMs, red teaming, and pen-testing.

SecurityWeek is hosting its fully virtual 2026 Attack Surface Management Summit from 11AM-3PM, focused on continuous asset discovery, prioritization, and risk reduction. Sessions cover proving exploitability, SBOM and AIBOM software supply chain risk with Dr. Allan Friedman, demos from Wiz and Horizon3's NodeZero, and the roles of red teaming, bug bounty, and penetration testing in enterprise defense.

Propagation Model for SSC attacks: Why SBOM (tools) don't tell the whole truth

Study shows open-source SBOM tools only cover structural exposure and vulnerability presence, missing code reachability and taint-path analysis stages.

An arXiv paper proposes a four-stage propagation model for software supply chain attack effects and empirically evaluates four open-source SBOM tools against it using three projects and the Log4j vulnerability as the test case. Current SBOM tools systematically support only Stage 1 (structural exposure) and Stage 2 (vulnerability class presence), while Stage 3 (code reachability) and Stage 4 (taint path analysis) require capabilities absent from the SBOM ecosystem. The authors argue propagation-centred SSC security research is needed to prevent cyber risk from evolving into systemic risk.
