AI Is Forcing a New Open Source Security Model
AI coding agents now choose dependencies — and attackers are exploiting hallucinated packages and MCP backdoors that legacy SCA tools like Sonatype's were never built to catch.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

How Snyk's AI-BOM uses code-level analysis, not manifest parsing, to surface shadow AI models, agent frameworks, and MCP servers security teams don't know are running.
Governments banned DeepSeek and other AI models in 2025 within days. Here's the security supply-chain risk teams face and how to find and fix it fast.
How Snyk's AI-BOM API exposes AI model and dataset inventories as queryable, CycloneDX-aligned data teams can pull into CI, GRC, and asset tooling programmatically.
Most SCA-flagged vulnerabilities aren't exploitable. Here's why reachability analysis — not just dependency matching — is what separates real risk from noise, and where Sonatype falls short.
How Snyk's snyk aibom --html flag turns CycloneDX AI-BOM data into an interactive graph of models, agents, tools, and MCP client-server-tool dependency chains.
OSS license management is the practice of tracking every open source license in your dependency tree and checking it against policy before it ships. Here is how to do it without slowing developers down.
