Hidden Risks In Open-Source Code And AI Models - Tal Folkman
"Hidden Risks In Open-Source Code And AI Models" - Tal Folkman
Through our efforts in tracking and combatting attackers in open source software supply chains, my team has gained valuable insights and lessons. In this presentation, we aim to provide attendees with a new perspective and tools for evaluating the trustworthiness of open source packages and AI models before using them in their own projects. This talk is for anyone who uses open source in their daily work. The goal is to raise awareness about the risks of software supply chain attackers hiding in open source code, and to demonstrate how easy it is for attackers to launch attacks. Attendees will learn about tools for detecting when they are being tricked and how to stay alert to potential threats.
