Real-Time Package Registry Security Firehose and Scanner

C7/10March 26, 2026
WhatA real-time streaming API that ingests every publish event from PyPI, npm, and GitHub and runs automated malware/anomaly detection within seconds of upload.
SignalMultiple commenters noted that scanners already exist that would have caught this attack instantly — the missing piece is a real-time event feed from package registries so those scanners can react before anyone installs a compromised version.
Why NowSupply chain attacks on package registries are accelerating (litellm, xz, ua-parser-js), registries are increasingly receptive to security partnerships, and LLMs can now classify suspicious package diffs at scale.
MarketEnterprise DevSecOps teams, package registry operators, and CI/CD platforms. Socket.dev is the closest competitor but focuses on static analysis at install time, not real-time firehose monitoring. TAM $3B+ in software supply chain security.
MoatFirst-mover integration deals with PyPI/npm/GitHub for firehose access, plus a growing corpus of labeled malicious package signatures that compounds detection accuracy over time.
