About this episode

The episode discusses the Vercel intrusion and CISA's response to the Axios npm compromise.

This week we dig deep into the Vercel intrusion that emerged last weekend, how it happened, what the response was, and what the downstream effects may be for defenders. Then we talk about CISA's bizarre delayed response to the Axios npm compromise and what it signals about the agency's capabilities going forward.
