The Lineaje Software Supply Chain Security Forum will serve as the nation’s premier conference focused on software supply chain risk which is a critical and rising concern for government, defense, and the broader national infrastructure. Through a mix of thought leadership, technical insight, and immersive engagement.
Over 30 of years in cybersecurity, led development of multiple AI-based security solutions and built one of the first antimalware/antivirus technologies which is still on the market today. He holds over 14 patents in cybersecurity. As a Fellow and CTO of McAfee, he led dozens of cybersecurity innovations from concept to commercial products. Recently he developed and launched the Lineaje AI platform.

Explore the intricacies of securing software development at scale within government entities. This session will cover the methodologies and strategies employed to ensure robust security measures are in place, from initial development stages to deployment. Learn how government agencies are adapting to the rapid pace of software innovation while maintaining stringent security protocols.
As software supply chains become increasingly intricate, the threat of foreign adversaries infiltrating critical systems through compromised code has escalated dramatically. With open-source components forming the backbone of modern applications, often with dependency chains 60 levels deep, cybersecurity leaders face a daunting challenge: 6.8% of open-source software is of dubious origin, and over 20% is committed by anonymous developers.
This interactive tabletop exercise draws on intelligence and threat patterns uncovered by a global community of security experts, distilling hard-to-find signals into actionable insights, tracing contributions from potentially hostile nations like China and Russia, and detecting recent software supply chain attacks that evade traditional security tools.
Participants will leave with actionable strategies to strengthen software provenance, enhance visibility, and build resilience against increasingly stealthy and sophisticated threats.This session is geared toward all public sector and defensive cybersecurity roles.
