<p dir="auto">Josh has a chat with Gabriele Columbro, Executive Director of the Fintech Open Source Foundation and General Manager of Linux Foundation Europe. We of course discuss the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the evolving landscape of open source regulation, and the collaborative efforts of major foundations. Open source is everywhere, but there's also a ton of work to do now. Gabriele has really good insight into where things are today and where they are heading in the future for open source and regulation.</p> <p dir="auto">The show notes and blog post for this episode can be found at <a href="https://opensourcesecurity.io/2025/2025-12-lfeu-gab/" rel= "nofollow">https://opensourcesecurity.io/2025/2025-12-lfeu-gab/</a></p>

Daniel Thompson answers: Does the CRA apply to Santa?

Open Source Security is a media project to help showcase and educate on open source security. Our goal is to give the community a platform educate both developers and users on how open source security works.

There's a lot of good work happening that doesn't get attention because there's no marketing department behind it, they don't have a developer relations team posting on LinkedIn every two hours. Let's focus on those people and teams then learn what they do and how they do it. The goal is to hear from the people doing the work, they know what's up, they have a lot to teach us. We just have to listen.
