100% slop:

HTTPS image: 100% slop: As more vendors, suppliers, and contractors become integral to an organization's operation, the need to identify and mitigate risks associated with such external partners is significant. Third-party risk management automation (TPRM) is essential in this process. TPRM involves integrating technology that streamlines and automates various methods for identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks from external partners.

Also 100% slop:

HTTPS image: 100% slop: Software development has always presented long-established programming languages with opportunities and challenges, including C++, which has long been a mainstay. However, C++ has come under scrutiny due to memory safety concerns. Because of its robust security features, developers often use Rust as an alternative language.

Add SEO prompting to the mix and the Web becomes a pool of slop, not knowledge. Microsoft LLMs 'explain' to people "Linux".
