Case Study: ID.me achieves earlier visibility into supply chain threats with Socket

ID.me gains earlier visibility into supply chain threats with Socket

ID.me, a provider of digital identity verification, sought to evolve its vulnerability management program beyond compliance reporting toward earlier fixing and prevention of supply chain threats. The challenge was to reduce dependency risk before malicious packages could reach production, especially with the rise of threats originating from developer endpoints and AI-assisted tools. They partnered with Socket to address this.

Socket provided ID.me with earlier visibility into active supply chain threats through its GitHub-native workflows and Firewall product, which blocks malicious packages from developer and build environments. This resulted in faster assessment and action during major ecosystem incidents, turning potential disruptions into minor events. Socket gave ID.me a practical path to integrate security into developer workflows, building a stronger foundation for prevention.
