Software supply chain security has become one of the biggest concerns in modern application development.
Most of us run commands like pip install, npm install, or go get without thinking twice. We trust package registries, open-source maintainers, and our existing workflows because that's how software gets built every day.
But recent supply chain incidents have shown that a single compromised dependency can become an entry point into CI/CD pipelines, cloud environments, and Kubernetes clusters.
It made me think about how different teams are approaching dependency security today.
Do you scan dependencies before they reach production?
Are you generating SBOMs or verifying package integrity as part of your build process?
Has your team changed its software supply chain practices after the recent attacks?
I came across a technical breakdown of the recent LiteLLM supply chain incident. It explains how the compromise happened, how it could affect containerized and Kubernetes-based environments, and the practical steps teams can take to reduce similar risks.

I'd be interested to hear how your team approaches dependency management and software supply chain security. Have recent incidents changed the way you build, scan, or deploy applications?
