Malicious Package Trend Analysis

It might seem obvious that regularly upgrading software and dependencies means your software is inherently more secure, but in practice, this is hard to achieve. Choice Hotels struggled to manually maintain their codebase and remediate all the transitive vulnerabilities lurking in the code. Today’s compositional applications created a complex archeological exploration challenge for developers trying to resolve security issues across a codebase. It was time-consuming, tedious, and imperfect.
