The open source community is waking up to a terrifying new reality where "trust" is being weaponized by sophisticated adversaries who are playing the long game to backdoor the very foundations of our digital infrastructure. Josh Bressers, Vice President of Security at Anchore, warns that while we’re busy chasing complex AI-driven exploits, the real danger lies in our collective failure to support the 99% of projects maintained by a single, overworked individual. To survive this era of "trust but verify," organizations must move beyond simply running scanners and start actively contributing to the community, because no amount of money can fix a supply chain that we aren't willing to help protect from the inside out.
