Maven's dependency resolution mechanism can be exploited through repository poisoning, dependency confusion, and POM manipulation. Here is what Java teams need to know.
Typosquatting remains one of the most effective supply chain attacks. Automated detection using string distance algorithms, behavioral analysis, and registry monitoring can catch malicious packages before they reach your builds.
Symbolic links in package archives can redirect file operations to unintended locations. Here is how this old trick still works against modern tools.
Rust build scripts run arbitrary code during compilation. Here is what they can access and how to evaluate the risk in your dependency tree.
Rust promises memory safety without garbage collection. Here is an honest look at where adoption stands and what it means for supply chain security.
When a supply chain compromise is confirmed or suspected, forensic investigation must trace the attack path through dependencies, build systems, and artifacts. This guide covers the methodology.
Signed updates are table stakes for software distribution. But the signing and verification process has pitfalls that undermine the entire security model.
Attackers impersonate legitimate organizations on package registries through name squatting, logo theft, and metadata manipulation. Here is how to protect your brand and your users.
