SSCS

Software supply chain security reimagined. From repository to pipeline to runtime.

Govern every change

Repositories and CI/CD pipelines, including shadow pipelines, inventoried in a graph-based XBOM with contributors, permissions, plugins, dependencies, and how they change over time.

Sonatype Supply Chain Report 2026

Misconfigurations get flagged, then nothing happens. No policy enforcement, no guardrails at merge, no response to abnormal commit activity.

Pipeline Security

SSCS

Escalated: completes a toxic combination

Average cost of a supply chain breach, 267 days to contain

"With Apiiro, we can ensure our pipelines are set up securely and get improved insights into the configuration of our source control repositories, a capability not provided by traditional AppSec tools. This heightened visibility, coupled with Apiiro's risk-based prioritisation and policy engine, instills confidence in our capability to continually measure supply chain risk and assess against best practice moving forward."

Detection without governance

Verizon DBIR 2025

Pipeline and SCM findings live outside the AppSec program, with no application context. Two backlogs, two consoles, no shared priority.

Your supply chain is only as strong as its least-governed link. SSCS governs every link, continuously, with application context.

Guardian Agent

Fragmented risk view

Attackers stopped picking application locks one at a time. Compromise the repository, the package, or the pipeline, and walk through thousands of doors at once.

Toxic Combinations

Shadow pipelines

Multidimensional prioritization based on likelihood and business impact, plus toxic combinations that chain application and supply chain risks no siloed tool can see.

Same finding: a branch with no required reviewers. Opposite risk reality. Both verdicts are possible only with application context in the Risk Graph. Siloed tools rate both medium.

Complete visibility

Focus on real risk

Why siloed tools bury it: a medium misconfiguration in one console, a pipeline CVE in another, an unusual commit in neither. SSCS chains all three in Risk Graph: unreviewed code, written by a first-time committer, built by a vulnerable pipeline, shipping a PII application. Critical, escalated, assigned.

Siloed SSCS tools detect misconfigurations. Apiiro SSCS validates risk. It reasons over your Software Graph and Risk Graph like an application security engineer: connects code, repository, pipeline, and application context, surfaces toxic combinations, and enforces governance on every material change.

Policies, developer guardrails, and automated workflows enforce supply chain governance on every commit, build, and deploy, with MTTR and risk metrics built in.

Governance & Guardrails

How SSCS works

Software supply chain security reimagined. From repository to pipeline to runtime. Integrated into your AppSec Data Fabric, not bolted on.

SSCS shifts supply chain security from siloed misconfiguration scanning to integrated risk validation and governance. Three outcomes follow.

AI coding agents commit faster than humans can review, and attackers shifted to the software factory itself: npm worms, hijacked GitHub Actions, and poisoned build systems defined the recent attack wave. Siloed point tools answer with fragmented findings. Four systemic failures follow.

Dismissed: sandbox repo, no blast radius

One misconfiguration. Two verdicts.

A PII repository, a vulnerable pipeline, and a branch with no required reviewers are three low findings to siloed tools. Together they are one critical risk.

Unknown pipelines, plugins, and pipeline dependencies escape inventory entirely. You can't govern a build system you don't know exists.

Siloed SSCS was built for the pre-AI age

Why siloed tools flag it: the rule matches, so the alert fires. The Risk Graph proves the repository is archived, never deployed, holds no sensitive data, and feeds no pipeline. SSCS deprioritizes it with evidence, and your team's attention stays on the chain that matters.
