The GitHub Blog post discusses the importance of understanding software supply chains for developers. A recent attack on npm, a popular JavaScript package repository, highlighted the vulnerabilities in these supply chains. By using GitHub Dependency Graph, developers can now visualize and manage dependencies more effectively, reducing potential risks associated with outdated or malicious packages. This matters because it empowers developers to maintain secure codebases and strengthens overall application security.
