The challenge is especially acute for open source software, since it’s a public good. Open source software underpins every software service we rely upon, including across critical infrastructure and the Federal government. A string of recent incidents have highlighted the need for sustained investment in open source software security. In this new era, the government has a crucial role to play in providing funding for the maintenance and securing of this software infrastructure.
