“Open-source software supply chain attacks have quietly exploded in scale and sophistication, yet security tools today can’t tell malicious code from benign.” — Millan Suri, Episode 1 Ventures, July 2026 3

What Founders Say

“We founded Ossprey because existing approaches weren’t designed for the pace modern engineering teams now operate at. Organisations shouldn’t have to choose between shipping software quickly and building it securely.” — Nate Dunning, CEO, July 2026 1
