In the case referenced at the beginning, Red Hat has the resources to provide a remedy and it is available. But what if the package that is vulnerable is not managed by a deep-pocketed open source supporter like Red Hat? What if it’s like the OpenSSL project that’s basically four guys in a garage? OpenSSL is one of the most important technologies on the Web, providing encryption services for over half of all websites. Well, you might have to wait a little longer for that remedy and meanwhile you’re the one sweating it out. What if it’s an abandoned project? You are now on your own. That is the darkest side of open source.

Finally, the question is whether your vendor (or your developers if this is a home-grown system) have the capacity to get your system upgraded before you fall prey to the ransom demand. We talked about the vendor and his challenges already. If you have your own developers supporting this system, it’s probable they’re not just sitting around waiting for things like this to happen. This means they need to disengage from whatever it is that they’re doing now and concentrate onfixing this problem. And timelines slip. Just another day at the office.

What’s the next potential threat? Who knows? There are security firms all over the world who make their livings testing software and working with development teams and organizations to fix security problems. There are also hackers doing the same testing and working with other like-minded people to exploit those vulnerabilities before they are found by the good guys and fixed. The critical period of disintermediation is not between these two events but from the time a vulnerability is found until you have the security fix in place in your systems.

So is this to say that open source software is bad? Not at all. Its usage just requires that the enterprise architect and the systems manager understand the risks, the resources, and the timelines required to fix security problems before they result in a breach. It requires steadfast management of your technology stack. It really requires complete understanding of the software comprising the systems you run.

I was flipping through my social media accounts this morning and the theme of the day appears to be “innovation” and “transformation”. They were used in articles in contrast like maybe they were similar but different. I looked up the definitions of both terms in the dictionary.

 In the case reference at the beginning, Red Hat have the resources to provide a redress and it is available. But what if the package that is vulnerable is not oversee by a deep - pocket receptive source patron like Red Hat? What if it ’s like the OpenSSL project that ’s basically four guys in a garage? OpenSSL is one of the about important technologies on the Web, providing encoding services for over half of all web site. Well, you might have to expect a small longer for that remedy and meanwhile you ’re the one sweating it out. What if it ’s an abandoned undertaking? You are now on your own.

 Finally, the question is whether your vendor (or your developers if this is a home - grow system) have the capacity to get your system upgrade before you hang prey to the ransom demand. We talked about the vendor and his challenges already. If you have your own developers support this arrangement, it ’s probable they ’re not just baby-sit approximately waiting for things like this to happen.

 What ’s the next potential threat? Who knows? There are security firm wholly over the populace who make their livings testing software and make with development teams and organizations to specify security problems. There are also hack doing the like testing and working with other like - minded citizenry to exploit those vulnerability before they are found by the beneficial guys and fixed. The critical menstruation of disintermediation is not between these two events but from the prison term a vulnerability is found until you have the security fix in place in your systems. 

 So is this to say that open beginning software is bad? Not at all. Its custom just requires that the enterprise architect and the system manager understand the risks, the resources, and the timelines required to fix security problems before they leave in a breach. It requires firm management of your engineering stack. It really command complete understanding of the software consist the systems you run.
