Developer Workstations Now Part of the Software Supply Chain

Developer Workstations Now Part of the Software Supply Chain

Colleagues, a note on cybersecurity: recent campaigns show attackers targeting developers' credentials and environments.

- What happened: malicious packages and images were used to steal keys, tokens and configs from workstations and CI.
- Why it’s dangerous: a developer machine contains context — tokens next to repos and scripts can provide full access to infrastructure.
- What to do: treat workstations as part of the supply boundary, control secrets, restrict privileges and revoke access rapidly.

Why it matters: protecting repos and CI is not enough; prevent leaks from local machines.

How would you rate your team's ability to detect and respond to workstation compromise?
