The CWE Top 25 most dangerous software weaknesses
MITRE's 2023 CWE Top 25 ranks the software weaknesses behind 43,996 CVEs. Here's how it's scored, what moved, and how to prioritize fixes.
SAST vs DAST: static and dynamic application security tes...
SAST catches insecure code before deploy; DAST tests running apps after. We compare both against JFrog's Artifactory-first model and Safeguard's supply-chain-native approach.
DevOps vs DevSecOps: what actually changes when you add s...
DevOps vs DevSecOps isn't a mindset shift — it's specific new artifacts, gates, and ownership. Here's what changes, contrasted with JFrog's artifact-first model.
Vulnerability scanning tools and techniques compared
A verifiable comparison of Safeguard and JFrog Xray on scan coverage, data sourcing, reachability analysis, and CI/CD integration for vulnerability scanning.
SOC 2 Type II vs ISO 27001: what each certification actua...
SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certify different things to different audiences. Here's what each actually covers, and how to evaluate supply chain vendors like JFrog and Safeguard on it.
JFrog Artifactory alternatives compared: what to look for...
Comparing JFrog Artifactory alternatives? Here's how JFrog's binary repository approach differs from Safeguard's supply chain security platform, and what to check before choosing.
JFrog vs Sonatype vs Safeguard: repository management and...
JFrog and Sonatype started as repository managers with security bolted on. Here's how they compare, and where a purpose-built approach like Safeguard fits.
AI agent skills and plugin repositories: why they need th...
AI agent skills and MCP plugins are packages in disguise—executable, publicly registered, and largely ungoverned. Here's why they need npm-grade supply chain controls.
CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) status: why it matters when...
JFrog has issued its own CVEs since 2021 as a CVE Numbering Authority. Here's what CNA status really controls, where it falls short, and how to verify vendor-disclosed vulnerabilities.
Government access request policies: how vendors handle la...
How JFrog and other software supply chain vendors handle law-enforcement subpoenas, and what Safeguard commits to differently on SBOM and metadata requests.
What is a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) and why it ma...
A software bill of materials (SBOM) is a live inventory of every dependency in your software. Here's why it matters, how JFrog handles it, and how Safeguard does better.
The Gap Between SBOM Generation and SBOM Consumption
Most companies generate SBOMs to satisfy a compliance checkbox, then let them sit unread. Here is why SBOM consumption lags generation, and how to close the gap.
Self-healing security runs on Safeguard.
