It's episode 25 of DevOps Decrypted – and we're talking about some big news in DevOps. It was recently revealed that a backdoor had been intentionally planted in XZ Utils, an open-source data compression utility available on almost all installations of Linux and other Unix-like operating systems.
We talk about the ramifications and ask, surely things would be better if they weren't open source? We'll let Rasmus stew on that one for a bit… The conversation leads us to the importance of observability and alerts, and we circle back to a past episode about SBOMs. We wrap up with some events on our calendar, including Team 24 – and as always, we're eager to hear your feedback.
