Software supply chain attacks have disrupted organizations and open-source projects at an increasing rate over the past 5 years, exposing the software supply chain as a critical aspect of an organizations security posture. Its prompted the need to protect developers, code, and developed products, which requires looking at a solution from multiple angles. Arnica integrates across your software supply chain and provides the necessary context, prioritization, ownership and actionability to proactively mitigate risks. In addition to providing complete (free!) reports around code risk (SAST, SCA, IaC), excessive permissions, low reputation 3rd party dependencies, code repository misconfigurations, anomalous developer behavior, and more, Arnica’s Pipelineless approach eliminates these risks in a blameless and shameless way by interacting directly with the developers in real-time to stop any new risks from entering your source code while also helping resolve your risks backlog.
