10 Minutes or Less: Socket CEO Feross Aboukhadijeh on Open Source Security

Socket founder and CEO Feross Aboukhadijeh joined Ali on 10 Minutes or Less to discuss the recent Axios backdoor attack that his team detected within six minutes of it hitting npm. The conversation covers how Socket uses AI to read code across 19 open source ecosystems, why open source has become critical infrastructure without adequate funding, and why attackers are increasingly targeting supply chains.

Feross also shares his experience being personally targeted by North Korean hackers and reflects on the state of open source security.
