Brian Behlendorf is the General Manager of the Open Source Security Foundation. Brian has dedicated his career to connecting and empowering the free software and open source community to both solve difficult technology problems and have a positive impact on society. From startup company founder, to advisor to the U.S. government, to non-profit board member and employee of the World Economic Forum, he's been at the forefront of the open source software revolution. Join hosts Luke Schantz and Joe Sepi as they get Brian's take on the latest open source software developments. As the recent Log4J vulnerability has shown, open source software is not immune to security breaches and attack. Brian shares his views on the Log4J scramble, his recent White House meetings on software security, the costs of security and threat mitigation, and future challenges and opportunities in open source software. Join us for a look back at Brian Behlendorf's unique career and see what's next for him and the movement he helped launch, this time on In the Open with Luke & Joe.Key Takeaways:[00:04 - 00:24] Intro to the episode[02:00 - 02:49] Intro to Brian Behlendorf[02:59 - 08:04] Brian's role with the Open Source Security Foundation[08:46 - 14:16] The importance and newer focus on security[15:29 - 18:27] How to more folks, importantly the US Government, involved in Node.Js[18:52 - 21:43] SBOM[21:48 - 26:17] The Alpha Omega Project[27:28 - 30:58] Getting money and support for security[31:46 - 35:02] The Best Practices badge[35:12 - 38:44] Project Sigstore[39:29 - 41:04] How to get involved in Open SSFResources:Brian Behlendorf bio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_BehlendorfOpen Source @ IBM: https://www.ibm.com/opensource/Learn in-demand skills.

In this podcast, Steve Martinelli, Dr. Max, and Emily Mitchell talk about a new Open Source Cloud Guide created to show what open source technology underpins today’s major cloud offerings.They chat about : ⁃ Why the guide was created ⁃ Specific topic areas within the guide ⁃ Ways you can contribute or enhance the guideAn O’Reilly survey that IBM commissioned in late 2020 pointed out that developers who want to build cloud applications should work on honing their open-source skills instead of only focusing on developing skills for a proprietary cloud.The survey highlighted that the most desired of the open-source skills are around Linux (containers), artificial intelligence and machine learning, and data storage.This got us thinking: How do those skills translate exactly to developing for hybrid cloud environments, inclusive of the major cloud providers? What open-source technologies are most used?The purpose of the Open Source Cloud Guide is to answer those questions.This Open Source Cloud Guide seeks to inform developers about what open source technology is important to contribute to. And, because it’s open sourced itself, you can contribute about the technology that’s included in other clouds. Use and contribute to the Open Source Cloud GuideKey Takeaways:[00:00 - 00:30] Intro to the episode[01:11 - 03:27] Intro to guests Emily, Dr. Max, and Steve[03:37 - 05:44] What is the Open Source Cloud Guide?[06:12 - 10:27] What to expect in terms of AI, APIs, big data containers, etc.[18:06 - 19:41] Emily's involvement in the projectResources:The Open Source Cloud Guide: open-cloud-guide.dev/Read & developer.ibm.com/blogs/contribute-to-a-new-open-source-cloud-guideIBM DeveloperIn the era of open hybrid cloud, open source skills matter more than proprietary software skillsO'Reilly survey highlights that open source cloud skills set devs apart for career prospects (40 kB)https://developer.ibm.com/blogs/oreilly-open-source-skill-survey-blog/
