Success Story
NetRise for Telecoms: Enhancing Firmware Security & QA Efficiency
Speakers
Thomas Pace
Co-founder & CEO, Netrise
Why SBOMs matter for ICS right now:
The talk connects the renewed SBOM urgency to recent U.S. executive order momentum and NTIA guidance—positioning SBOMs as especially critical for high-impact ICS assets.
How SBOMs are created, used, and turned into security outcomes:
Pace covers what an SBOM is, how teams generate and consume them, and why the resulting data is valuable for real use cases like known-vulnerability detection, integrity verification, provenance tracking, and license compliance.
Value across stakeholders + reality check on legacy:
He explains how SBOMs benefit both ICS manufacturers and end users (including major time savings once SBOMs exist), while acknowledging the hardest part: producing accurate SBOMs for legacy/out-of-support devices.
