© Thinkstock On Feb. 17, a remarkable White House press briefing addressed possible executive action in the wake of the SolarWinds hack, the most systematic hack of the U.S. government in history.  Anne Neuberger, deputy national security advisor for cybersecurity and emerging technology, described it as “more than a single incident of espionage” with the potential to lead to crippling, destructive cyberattacks by Russia. SolarWinds is the latest victim of a series of hacks against software supply chains. These attacks are possible because software has become so complex that software vendors have lost track of all the code that goes into them. To address this, the U.S. government and software industry must immediately adopt the emerging Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) standard, which they have been working on together since 2019. The United States must be an early adopter to push the global ecosystem forward.
