Zig's Memory Safety Model: A Security Analysis for Systems Programmers
Zig offers memory safety features that C lacks but does not go as far as Rust. For security-critical code, understanding where Zig sits on the safety spectrum matters.
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.

Tauri offers a fundamentally different security model than Electron for desktop applications. Understanding its permission system, IPC boundaries, and supply chain implications is critical.
Security audits of the Rust crate ecosystem reveal patterns of unsafe code, build script risks, and supply chain vulnerabilities. Here is what the data shows.
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.
Rust's crates.io registry has design advantages for supply chain security, but it's not immune. Here's an honest assessment of the Rust ecosystem.
Rust's compiler catches memory safety bugs. Clippy catches everything else -- including security anti-patterns the borrow checker does not care about.
BlackCat (ALPHV) brought Rust programming, triple extortion, and supply chain targeting to the ransomware-as-a-service model, raising the bar for both attackers and defenders.
