“Tech companies – including Uber, Dropbox, Twitter, and Docker – have joined forces to create the Vendor Security Alliance, which aims to vet vendor security practices.
Oftentimes compromised vendor systems are the gateways leading to major security breaches. Nine prominent tech companies are joining forces to prevent these types of attacks with the Vendor Security Alliance (VSA).
VSA is a coalition of organizations committed to improving Internet security. The group will create standards for vendors’ security practices so enterprise customers can gauge the safety of their products and services.”
