The Biden administration convened an Open Source Software Security Summit on Thursday. The meeting focused on preventing security defects and vulnerabilities in open-source software. Google proposed the creation of a new organization that would act as a marketplace for open source maintenance that would match volunteers with critical projects that need the most support. The summit follows attacks targeting critical security vulnerabilities in the Apache Log4j Java-based logging library that exposed home users and enterprises alike to remote code execution attacks. President Biden has previously made software security a national priority.”]
