Cloudsmith addresses weaponization of the software supply chain with advanced security capabilities
Cloudsmith announced an expansion of its advanced security capabilities, framing the platform as a unified control plane that bridges the gap between threat intelligence and active enforcement. The release highlights two core capabilities — continuous package enrichment (pulling from OSV.dev, EPSS, and OpenSSF malicious package data) and OPA-based policy management with features like cool-down periods, exploitability prioritization, deep SBOM inspection, and malicious package detection. The underlying argument: security tools surface risk just fine, but enforcement is disconnected from where software actually moves — and Cloudsmith fixes that.
