A vendor-neutral framework for software supply chain security tools
Supply chain tooling splits into four distinct categories with different failure modes — the xz-utils backdoor slipped past most of them for over two years.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.
Supply chain tooling splits into four distinct categories with different failure modes — the xz-utils backdoor slipped past most of them for over two years.
A single compromised maintainer token in March 2025 exposed secrets across 23,000+ repositories — supply chain attacks now target the pipeline, not just the package.
CCleaner, tj-actions, and ua-parser-js show the same pattern: trusted tools with CI access became the attack, hitting 2.27M+ users and 23,000+ repos.
GitGuardian found 23.77 million secrets exposed on public GitHub in 2024 alone — an unprotected SBOM repository is the same mistake, just with your dependency tree instead.
28.65 million new secrets landed on public GitHub in 2025 alone. Here's a research methodology for finding them at scale without becoming the next incident.
Four years after EO 14028, most SBOMs still sit unread in a folder. Here's how to generate, ship, and actually query one before the next Log4Shell.
One threat actor ran 3,000+ fake GitHub accounts and 2,200+ cloned repos to infect over 1,300 victims in four days. Here's how to spot the fakes.
npm has shipped a native `npm sbom` command since v9 — but a real supply chain program needs more than the CLI default. Here's how to do it right.
A base SBOM only lists what's in your build — OSV.dev, EPSS, and OpenSSF Scorecard turn that inventory into a prioritized risk decision.
