Summary

Socket has introduced a free upgrade to its Team plan for open source projects, acknowledging the critical role these projects play in technological advancement and recognizing the often unnoticed efforts of open source contributors. The upgraded plan enhances the free offering by including additional security features such as blocking rules to prevent risky dependencies, organization-wide dependency search, Slack alerts, and dedicated support. Socket, developed by a team of open source maintainers whose software is downloaded over a billion times per month, goes beyond traditional CVE scanning by preventing zero-day supply chain attacks and analyzing dependencies for malicious activity. The initiative, open to any publicly licensed open source project, aims to protect influential open source projects from becoming targets of supply chain attacks and allows developers to evaluate the security and health of their packages quickly.
