Abstract

The software supply chain of the communication industry under large language models involves multiple aspects, including product development, testing, and operation and maintenance management, which is a full-lifecycle activity. As an emerging technology, large language models have been widely applied in the software supply chains of various industries in recent years. For traditional software supply chains, they pose relatively significant data security risks to both upstream and downstream sectors. Research has shown that both environmental and data risks need to be analyzed and addressed to effectively reduce the frequency of risks and resolve a series of existing issues. This not only enhances the convenience of people's lives but also mitigates risks caused by data leakage.
