About

Socket is an open-source supply chain security platform that analyzes npm, PyPI, and other package registry submissions in real time to detect malicious code, dependency confusion attacks, typosquatting, and known vulnerabilities before they reach developer machines or CI pipelines. Founded by Feross Aboukhadijeh, Socket monitors package behavior — not just CVE lists — scanning for suspicious patterns like network access, shell execution, and obfuscated code that traditional vulnerability scanners miss. The platform integrates directly into GitHub pull requests, flagging risky dependency changes before they are merged.

About

Ankr is a Web3 infrastructure platform offering remote procedure call node access to more than 30 blockchain networks through a globally distributed network of nodes run by independent operators. Unlike centralized providers that operate their own data centers exclusively, Ankr's decentralized architecture routes requests across geographically distributed nodes, improving latency for users in regions underserved by US- or EU-centric infrastructure. Its public free-tier RPC endpoints — available for Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, and dozens of others — have made Ankr one of the most widely used infrastructure providers in the multi-chain developer ecosystem.
