Malicious open-source packages surge 92% in two years

Open-source software is vital to modern development but also creates entry points for attackers. Malicious packages—libraries weaponized with harmful code—activate upon installation, bypassing security tools that detect vulnerabilities later.

This white paper offers strategies to detect and prevent malicious package attacks. Learn:

· How malicious packages pose immediate threats, unlike vulnerabilities
· Case studies of major attacks from 2018–2025
· Steps to implement defenses across workstations, CI/CD pipelines, and production

Read the white paper to safeguard your organization from this growing threat.
