Supply chain security

The Compliance Blind Spot in the AI Era Artificial intelligence has revolutionized how we build software, but the tools we use to prove it’s secure are stuck in the past. Today’s applications are complex assemblies of pre-trained models, microservices, and countless open-source dependencies. While this accelerates innovation, it also creates a critical challenge for software supply chain security : how do you secure what you can't see? Traditional vulnerability scanners were

Meet EU CRA SBOM Requirements and Prepare for the UK Cyber Security and Resilience Bill, Without Slowing Engineers Why This Matters Now The EU Cyber Resilience Act compliance bar is rising for anyone shipping software. UK organisations face comparable duties under the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill . If you deliver via CI/CD, you will need machine-readable SBOMs, lifecycle vulnerability handling, and audit-ready evidence that does not throttle delivery. This guide shows

Why Today’s SBOMs Aren’t Enough Every major breach in the last five years has one thing in common: the attackers didn’t break through the front door, they slipped in through dependencies. That’s why governments rushed to make Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs)  mandatory. From the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA)  in Europe to Executive Order 14028  in the United States, SBOMs are now table stakes for selling software. But here is the problem: most SBOMs are glorified spreadsheets

Most security teams drown in CVE alerts, but can't identify which vulnerabilities truly threaten revenue. Trace-AI solves this with metadata-first CVE prioritization, taking you from raw CVE to business decision in 60 seconds. Unlike traditional CVE scanners that create noise, our research-backed approach contextualizes risks using dependency graphs, maintainer data, and compliance mapping for faster, smarter vulnerability management.

The software supply chain is under siege. In 2025 alone, we’ve witnessed a wave of sophisticated breaches — from poisoned PyPI packages to the XZ Utils backdoor that nearly compromised core Linux distributions. These attacks don’t just exploit zero-days; they exploit trust. Trust in dependencies, in package maintainers, in build systems. SBOMs — Software Bills of Materials — are emerging as the critical response to this shifting threat landscape. When implemented correctly, S

Modern developers can launch apps in days using AI copilots and open-source libraries, but this speed has created a dangerous trend: "vibe coding" - building without understanding. When functionality takes priority over architecture, the result isn't innovation - it's fragility. We recently discovered critical flaws in a fast-growing trading platform that exposed financial data and admin tokens through basic reconnaissance. Speed is good, but speed without structure is a brea

Speed without structure is dangerous. We recently uncovered critical flaws in a fast-growing trading platform that exposed financial data, admin tokens, and proprietary LLM prompts through basic reconnaissance. This is the reality of "vibe-coded" applications—MVPs masquerading as mature apps. Modern software supply chains include AI-generated scripts, serverless functions, and countless dependencies that create blind spots. Fast shipping should be accountable, not just functi
