Open Source Security welcomes Josh Corman to talk about the challenges around securing our critical infrastructure. Specifically the discussion centers around our water supplies. There are a lot of really wild things happening right now with attacks like Volt Typhoon and Salt Typhoon. Josh has an amazing ability to make these sort of discussions easy to understand without spreading FUD. Josh also has suggestions for actions that need to be taken to help deal with these problems. It's not all technical solutions, there are non technical things we can do to help reduce the risk posed by our technical systems failing.

Josh welcomes Mo Duffy from Red Hat to chat about project Lightwell. The idea is to leverage the resources and understanding Red Hat has built up over the years to help deal with the deluge of vulnerability reports that are overwhelming open source projects. Mo does a really good job of explaining why this is fundamentally a people problem, not a technology problem. But it's a people problem we can probably use technology to help. It will be interesting to see where Lightwell goes in the next few years. The show notes and blog post for this episode can be found at https://opensourcesecurity.io/2026/2026-07-lightwell-mo-duffy
