[Verse 1]
When vendors hold your system's keys
Don't just think of SaaS with ease
Your dependencies run much deeper than you know
OSS projects, registries flow
Build tooling, certificate stores
App marketplaces, and so much more
[Chorus]
VRM beyond the obvious places
SLAs for all your bases
Escrow, source access, notification chains
Insurance forms and risk domains
Map your stack from top to ground
Every link must be secured and sound
[Verse 2]
Procurement starts with service levels
Support commitments, change revelations
When ownership shifts, you need to know
Contract clauses make it so
For proprietary code you can't see
Source escrow sets your systems free
[Chorus]
VRM beyond the obvious places
SLAs for all your bases
Escrow, source access, notification chains
Insurance forms and risk domains
Map your stack from top to ground
Every link must be secured and sound
[Bridge]
Third-party questionnaires arrive
Security posture, staying alive
Financial health and data flows
Answer truthfully, your diligence shows
Cyber insurance wants to see
Your vendor management strategy
[Verse 3]
From container registries to signing keys
Certificate authorities, app store fees
Build pipelines and deployment tools
Each dependency has its own rules
Modern stacks have hidden ties
Vendor risk in disguise
[Chorus]
VRM beyond the obvious places
SLAs for all your bases
Escrow, source access, notification chains
Insurance forms and risk domains
Map your stack from top to ground
Every link must be secured and sound
[Outro]
Resilience means seeing clear
Every vendor, far and near
Your supply chain's strength depends
On managing how each link extends
