Piloting in Europe first, TODO is currently seeking for collaborators to bring together the various communities involved in OSPO-specific topics and thus, help organizations effectively implement OSPO Programs based on specific region needs.

-
Better assist OSPOs on ways to increase the security of the use of open source code, company-owned projects, and improve the security of upstream OSS they organization use and depend upon (OpenSSF)
-
Better assist OSPOs on open standarts and open source compliance best practices and implementation (OpenChain)
