And I really think that that's what we need to talk about more inside of cybersecurity and in I.T. is how we're going to get you through this, because it's going to happen. Nobody's safe anymore from cyber attacks or scams or any type of ransomware or anything like that. all the due diligence you do up front is going to keep you strong. And that's what we want you to do.

We want you to be strong so you can survive that said virus or that said situation or somebody fat fingered something and something happened on the line or whatever happened. We want to make sure that you can get through it. And the nice thing, too, is that you're also providing help for your other factories that are in different companies that are inside your company, because if you have

really good handle on your SBOMs, that's going to be great for those other factories because everybody makes food for everybody else's factories. And, you know, it's a whole chain. It's a web. So I think that you're helping a neighbor out almost if you do this correctly. Right. And I think that's an incentive in itself.

Feel free to use that mark for your company taglines, like helping a neighbor, because it's true. That's what you're doing because you're ultimately helping others by making sure you're OK. And I think that that is, again, another thing that people don't think about that often. Mm hmm.

So, Mark, as we're coming to a close here, and I've really enjoyed this talk because I love it when people make things simple. Talk about the future of SBOMs and where you see the supply chain moving. And I just want to know what you think the next couple of years are going to look like and what we should be on the lookout for.

Yeah. And to end on a positive here. We will. I can get you there. I think what I heard in that was there's opportunity, especially within the food industry specifically, because they are already doing this work very well when it comes to food traceability and the new laws that are coming out with that. And I think that this is just one in the same.

So if your organization is already on that on that journey, then culturally you're good.

Like you're going to get there all the way through with SBOMs as well, because you're going to need it for that transparency aspect and that traceability aspect, because you're going to need to know what software is touching your product, whether it's the machine that's running to make your perfectly round cookies or whatever. or something to that effect.

And I think that's super important to acknowledge is because the food industry is really good at that because they're doing it for the right reasons, the mission, as you said. As a whole, I will say this in a broad sense, in a very optimistic sense, I think the food industry is going to adopt very easily and very well to this. Other industries will struggle.

I don't want to pick on anybody and I'm not going to. But there will be some industries that will have trouble with this because there's too much change. There's too much regulations. There's too much everything. And they won't, they'll be boiling the ocean instead of making their tea again.
