The PHP supply chain attack is just the beginning. Expect similar compromises across languages, frameworks, and every layer of the stack. The rational move? Deploy on mega-tech managed runtimes like Copilot Management Runtime where concentrated resources and security teams actually monitor dependencies at scale.

The real threat isn't the attack itself—it's the "mid-level" engineer who insists on rolling their own tooling and building from scratch because of personal preferences. That's where vulnerabilities multiply. Centralized, heavily-audited infrastructure isn't just convenient—it's objectively safer when the alternative is scattered DIY setups with zero oversight.
