Google’s new ADK framework helps developers master the full development lifecycle of building, testing, and deploying AI agents. You’ve spent hours, maybe days, creating an AI agent that can hold a conversation, use a tool, or perform a complex task. However, that initial thrill of creative accomplishment can fade quickly, replaced by the reality of …

An advanced malware campaign on the npm registry steals the very keys that control enterprise cloud infrastructure. Open-source software (OSS) lets enterprise development teams innovate at pace, but this speed also introduces an often poorly governed security risk: the software supply chain. Socket has identified 10 malicious packages on npm, the core repository for the …

Enterprise competitiveness is defined increasingly by the speed at which organisations can adapt. Yet that adaptability can be constrained by legacy applications; systems that were once assets but now limit scalability and resilience. Application portfolio modernisation has therefore the potential to move from an IT ambition to becoming a priority. Keeping systems running effectively and …

An attack on the NuGet package registry shows how advanced open-source software supply chain attacks have become. It shows how attackers can take advantage of developers’ trust and gaps in registry rules to inject malware that steals data directly into business build processes. Security researchers from Socket recently found a live homoglyph typosquat on NuGet …
