- Advisory Management: Execute the security advisory and CVE monitoring process in collaboration with Senior Cybersecurity Leader and GEV CIRT team
Supply Chain and SBOM
- SBOM Operations: Maintain SCA tooling and operationalize SBOM standards, ensuring 100% visibility into the source and binary components of product and system.
