Recon now included with Veeam Data Platform Advanced

 

Actionable steps to secure your supply chain

 
 
 
Webinar
 
Moving from Risk to Resilience
 
Practical strategies for securing the software supply chain in an AI-driven world.
 
 
 

Knowing the risks is one thing. Knowing exactly what to do about them is another.

When it comes to software supply chain security, the landscape is shifting rapidly. AI is accelerating development, but it's also introducing new vulnerabilities into the supply chain that traditional tools often miss. CISOs and security teams need a clear, actionable plan to bridge the gap between innovation and security.

Join Veracode's product leadership and GigaOm Field CTO, Chris Ray, for a fireside chat designed to move beyond theory and into practice. We will outline specific steps you can take today to harden your supply chain against emerging threats.

In this session, you will gain:

  • Strategic Clarity:A breakdown of the evolving AppSec landscape and where supply chain security fits into your broader strategy.
  • Actionable Guidance: Concrete steps for security leaders to improve compliance and reduce risk without slowing down developers.
  • Market Intelligence: Exclusive insights from the GigaOm Radar Report for Software Supply Chain Security, including why Veracode was named a leader.

Featured Speakers:

  • Ajay Nigam, Chief Product Officer, Veracode
  • Tim Jarrett, VP of Product Management, Veracode
  • Chris Ray, Field CTO, GigaOm

Webinar Details:

Date: Wednesday, March 18
Time: 11:00 AM ET

Artist Canvas for Painting: 2026 Material Selection Parameters

What dictates the structural integrity of blank painting canvas?

Artist canvas for painting is a highly specialized woven textile substrate engineered specifically to hold pigment securely. As a materials scientist analyzing biaxial tensile strength, I categorize these surfaces by fiber composition. Cotton duck fabric offers an economical, short-staple weave. Belgian linen utilizes long bast fibers from the flax plant. Polyester provides a purely synthetic, climatically neutral polymer alternative. Laboratory aging simulations from 2025 prove that pure linen retains forty-two percent more structural rigidity over a half-century than standard cotton. The presence of natural lignin allows linen to resist severe hygroscopic expansion.

How do oil and acrylic mediums alter substrate preparation requirements?

Painters must match the fabric primer directly to their chosen chemical binder. Linseed oil binders generate an exothermic oxidation reaction. This reaction releases hexanoic acids that break the beta-glycosidic bonds in raw cellulose. Painters block this degradation by applying a Polyvinyl Acetate size directly to the raw cotton. Acrylic polymer emulsions do not rot natural fibers. Acrylics require mechanical tooth for proper adhesion. Manufacturers apply calcium carbonate and polymer emulsion mixtures, known as acrylic gesso, to create this porous grip. Proper gesso application also blocks Support Induced Discoloration caused by migrating water-soluble impurities.

Why does raw fabric weight determine tension dynamics?

Textile mills measure substrate density in ounces per square yard before applying any chemical ground. Heavyweight canvases measuring twelve ounces or higher provide the necessary rigidity for heavy impasto techniques. Tension tests demonstrate that twelve ounce fabric supports three pounds of applied modeling paste per square foot before demonstrating center-sag. Lightweight fabrics warp immediately under heavy moisture. Artists producing large gallery installations rely on heavy yardage from bulk raw canvas rolls to maintain surface tension. Retailers also stretch medium fabrics over wooden chassis to create standard prepared canvas supports.

Review material specifications carefully before acquiring artist painting surfaces. Compare professional stretched canvas options to verify gallery profile depths. Evaluate yardage requirements using bulk raw canvas rolls to manage high-volume studio production efficiently for specific oil or acrylic painting applications today.
