Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Imagine this: your security team has done everything right. All development teams are using a centrally managed artifact repository with scanning in place. Your engineering organization has clear policies about where packages can come from. You feel good about your software supply chain posture. Then an incident review surfaces something nobody planned for: a compromised npm package entered your environment.

Security teams are under more pressure than ever, and most of them believe they’re keeping up. That confidence, it turns out, may be the most consequential finding in the JFrog 2026 Software Supply Chain Security State of the Union.

The way software gets built has fundamentally shifted. AI coding agents are no longer just autocomplete on steroids; they’re resolving packages, configuring environments, selecting tools, and in some cases running the entire development lifecycle, with or without a human in the loop.
