The team recently released Teleport 6.2. This post will walk you through some of the new features and additions included in this release. This release has a few breaking changes. If you’re currently running Teleport on AWS using DynamoDB, we would advise waiting for 6.2.1 before upgrading.

Trust isn’t given, it’s earned. As the Russian proverb advises, Доверяй, но проверяй — or as U.S. President Ronald Reagan liked to repeat, “Trust, but verify.” We designed JFrog Pipelines to securely support a large number of teams, applications, users and thousands of pipelines.

We have been witnessing an ever growing amount of supply chain security incidents in the wild. Everything from open source package managers security flaws being exploited to continuous integration systems being compromised to software artifacts being backdoored. And now, those incidents are starting to extend to the place where developers spend most of their time: their integrated development environment, and specifically the Visual Studio Code IDE.

To stay ahead of attackers, we constantly monitor various security threats. One of these threats — supply chain attacks — aims to compromise an organization through its software development process. Recently, a huge spike in supply chain attacks was observed — dependency confusion was discovered, the SolarWinds breach was reported and more malicious packages were flagged. This certainly drew our attention (as well as the rest of the world’s)!

As announced last week by our good friends at the Node.js Foundation, Snyk has agreed to take over from the amazing Node.js ecosystem vulnerability disclosure program. As a company that’s been part of this program from a very early stage — and has been inspired by it to create our own multi-ecosystem disclosure program — it is a great honor to have been entrusted with this responsibility, and we thank the Node.js Foundation sincerely for their trust in this matter.

Uptime. Reliability. Efficiency. These used to be perks, elements of forward-thinking and premium-level enterprises. Now they’re a baseline expectation. Today, consumers expect information, resources, and services to be available on-demand, updated in real time, and accessible without fuss. Imagine trying to Google something or place an order from Amazon only to be told, “Please try again in 48 hours. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

Open Source software provides the community source code that anyone can inspect, modify, and enhance. OSS is so ubiquitous that it’s even on other planets. This post is for the people who run these projects.
