Open source modules, and especially npm, are undoubtedly awesome.

However, they also represent an undeniable and massive risk. You’re introducing someone else’s code into your system, often with little or no scrutiny.

Each component may have vulnerabilities (~14% of them do), be compromised, or even be outright malicious.

Multiply that risk by hundreds of dependencies, and you have a recipe for disaster. In this webinar Guy Podjarny demonstrates how to mitigate this risk without losing productivity.

Guy shares data about risk, shows how to find and fix known vulnerabilities in npm dependencies, discusses how to prioritize the ones worthy of manual inspection, and suggests what to monitor in production.

Presenter: Guy Podjarny  (LinkedIn profile, @guypod Guypo) is founder of Snyk.io, building web security tools for developers& was previously CTO at Akamai & founder of Blaze.io. Guy’s research and writing focuses on web security and performance, often running large tests to reach data-driven conclusions. A frequent conference speaker, he writes at guypo.com and Medium, is the author of Responsive & Fast: Implementing High-Performance Responsive Design, and the creator of Mobitest.
