About Socket Security
Prevent malicious open source dependencies from infiltrating your apps.
Socket dramatically improves your open source security posture by detecting and blocking the attacks you don't expect – malware, install scripts, hidden code, typo-squatting, and more – which aren't caught by traditional vulnerability scanners.
• Block malware – Block emerging malware threats • Block typo-squatting – Block malicious packages that differ in name by only a few characters • Detect hidden code – Detect obfuscated, minified, or hidden code • Detect privileged API usage – Report when a dependency update introduces new risky API usage – filesystem, network, child_process, eval() • Detect suspicious updates – Sudden inclusion of privileged APIs in patch or minor releases
Socket currently supports 80+ detections in 6 categories: Supply chain risk, Vulnerability, Quality, Maintenance, License, and more ...
