Call for Proposals: Strengthening Software Supply Chain Security
من نحن
The CodeSupply Open Call for Software Supply Chain Security Projects (CODESUPPLY) supports free and open source research and development initiatives that enhance software supply chain security through the creation, improvement, and accessibility of software metadata. The programme seeks to advance the publication of accurate, comprehensive, and up-to-date metadata, develop scalable and sustainable mechanisms for open access to software datasets, and establish a foundation for future innovations in software data infrastructure. Priority areas include cybersecurity, software supply chain management, regulatory compliance, and open source licence compliance. Through its ecosystem, CodeSupply aggregates and curates metadata related to software origin, licensing, security vulnerabilities, and quality metrics, making these resources openly available through reference datasets and a federated data catalogue. The call has a total budget of €400,000, with grants ranging from €5,000 to €50,000. Funding supports projects worldwide that contribute new or existing open source technologies, including innovative concepts, disruptive solutions, and the development or scaling of technologies with practical, real-world impact. Eligible activities include software research and development, creation of software metadata tools and datasets, technology enhancement, platform scaling, and other open source solutions aligned with the programme’s objectives.
