Thwarted supply-chain hack sets off alarm bells across Washington DC
A recent attempt to compromise a widely used open-source software utility has sparked concerns about the vulnerability of the open-source supply chain and the potential involvement of foreign nation-states in covert espionage.

This discovery prompted rapid responses from security professionals and government agencies, including guidance from the U.S. government’s lead civilian cybersecurity agency, CISA, to mitigate potential cyber threats.
