The RSA Conference 2025, held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, convened over 44,000 cybersecurity professionals and emphasized the importance of software supply chain security and secure software development lifecycle (SDLC) practices. Key themes included the risks associated with the expanding vendor ecosystem and over-reliance on third-party tools, as well as the persistent threat posed by both open-source and commercial software supply chains. Experts advocated for a shift towards proactive, holistic risk management, emphasizing continuous monitoring and tailored incident response plans. The role of AI and automation in transforming supply chain security was highlighted, though concerns about new risks associated with autonomous AI agents were also noted. Transparency and traceability in software supply chains were underscored as critical, with emerging technologies like PQC and blockchain being explored for enhanced traceability. A consensus emerged favoring unified security platforms over fragmented tools to improve threat detection and response capabilities. Lastly, the conference spotlighted the challenge of operationalizing threat intelligence and the ongoing tension between maintaining rapid development cycles and implementing robust security measures in scalable solutions.
