Big news today: we were acquired by VMware! We’re very excited to join forces and tackle new challenges in cloud security together.
VMware confirmed that it has acquired Intinsic, a San Francisco serverless computing start-up. cnb.cx/2zgO4ln

See @tlhunter at our @Meetup in San Francisco @CapitalOne on April 4th, 6:30 pm Talk is "Real World Attacks in the npm Ecosystem" read about it here... bit.ly/2Oy6DID

Why should I use a Reverse Proxy if #NodeJS is Production-Ready? medium.com/intrinsic/why-sho…

Github diffs are useless from a security perspective. It's gotta be an npm diff, and you should be suspicious if the package is bundled before publish. Bundling should be on the package consumer

Symbols bring a few benefits to #JavaScript and are particularly useful when used as object properties. But, what can they do for us that strings cannot? And why don't they come with the same guarantees in #NodeJS? medium.com/intrinsic/javascr…

Do you maintain a #JavaScript library? Have a look at "Protecting your JavaScript APIs". Is your library resilient to each of the outlined attacks? medium.com/intrinsic/protect…

Exactly! This is what we do for Node.js!
It’s also not the real problem. A system that relies on no one ever making a mistake to avoid a catastrophic security issue in the entire community is a fundamentally flawed system. Amazon doesn’t just hope no one uses AWS maliciously, they use *VM isolation*.

Replying to @seldo
I hope you buy a solution from us but if you don't, buy a solution from *somebody*, for the love of god. I use your products and I need you to take this seriously.

"The typical #nodejs app is about 95% third party modules. Scrutinizing every line of third party code simply isn’t a realistic way of protecting yourself from these threats, which is why Intrinsic is here to protect you." - via @tlhunter medium.com/intrinsic/securin…
