Security teams nowadays are struggling to contain the risk of software supply chain attacks on their organizations, implementing control of that sort varies from internal controls hardening CI services /hardening developer workstations to demanding compliance to standards from vendors\contactors. However, one of the places security teams having harder time is in the field of open-source software.
The use of third-party software components is part of the modern software development culture with over 90% of engineering teams worldwide building and shipping software that uses external code. While facilitating extreme agility, it also increases the attack surface of organizations as seen in the spike of recent major incidents .
