Hey everyone at Product Hunt! ✨ I am super thrilled to introduce Bytesafe - a devtool that puts you back in control of the software supply chain, reducing the stresses and risks on your business whilst using open source components.✨ 💡 Let’s explain a bit more Bytesafe enables developers to work securely with open source dependencies, changing the behavior and mindset of how organizations monitor and manage open source security. 👷🏾 Developers today need to balance between: Deploying fast + Writing quality code + Knowing what open source code to use, when and where. On top of that, there is often mounting pressure to become security experts. With JavaScript applications using on average 100+ dependencies, developers face a growing task of having to keep track of open source components. It’s not uncommon for example that once dependencies are pushed to production, those versions remain forever - even when vulnerabilities are known to exist. All because businesses don’t have access to proper insights into the dependencies that their code is dependent on. As developers, we know from experience just how difficult it can be to manage open source dependencies - and today what makes it worse is that not all stakeholders in businesses are on top or even aware of the risks. The good thing is that it does not have to look like this. Deploying fast should never expose your business to unnecessary risk or mean that your security targets are lowered. We believe this is true - so much so that we’ve invested 2+ years in building Bytesafe and bootstrapped it ourselves. 👩‍💻 Who is Bytesafe for? So, we built Bytesafe from the ground up to securely manage dependencies in real-time, improving productivity and collaboration when working with packages. Democratizing security to make it accessible for the whole business, but not at the expense of developer convenience. Security is everybody’s responsibility - from developers to business stakeholders. 🚀 The Bytesafe solution Do you need to manage npm package dependencies to make sure that your apps depend on code that fulfills your business policies - while making life easier for developers and other stakeholders? That’s what Bytesafe does and more - give us a try! A controlled source of truth for dependencies. Fully managed secure private npm registries, for both private and public packages. For all your applications and teams. Insights into your supply chain. Identify the dependencies you are using and their security and open source license issues. Protecting the business from unintended packages entering the software development lifecycle - with a dependency firewall, plugins and policies. We will be adding package quarantine to our dependency firewall, enhancing tracking and visualization of the progress on issues, remediation and accountability. Next up we’re looking into dependency analysis of git repos, in-depth open source license compliance features and support for other ecosystems. ✨ What we would like from you - the Product Hunt community We are now at a stage where we have a robust and tested platform to build on. Bytesafe has been live for more than a year now and we have both business users and individual developers that have subscribed from across the globe. What do you want, need, require or miss? We want to build Bytesafe to actual needs - the Swedish way. We now have a solid and proven foundation and need your help on how to take the next big step to meet the needs of enterprise organizations.

@john_kennedy8 Hi John - we agree that there is a need in the market for products like Bytesafe - and we’re just at the beginning of our journey! Besides adding new features we are focusing a lot on creating awareness as many devs and businesses are not giving enough attention to dependency security. Breaches like Solarwinds and hot security topics like dependency confusion help us with spreading the word - but we are working on helping businesses avoid similar situations like these.

Summer has been busy for the Bytesafe team. In our initial post we mentioned we will be adding package quarantine and issue management/visualization. Time has come! Now our users are able to even better see all issues with packages across all their private registries using Issue tracking in Bytesafe and configure custom rules when they want to protect their teams and organization from unwanted packages using Quarantine. Here's more information about the new features Issue tracking and automatic quarantine of unwanted packages Issues tracking and Quarantine overview
