The golden path: security that works because it's the easy path

A golden path for dependency management isn't a policy document – it's a preconfigured private registry with upstream proxies covering every ecosystem your teams use, set as the default. Developers don't opt into security; they get it automatically by using the standard toolchain. The alternative is teams configuring their own controls, producing inconsistent postures and compounding risk across the org. If the secure path requires extra steps, developers will route around it. Make it the easiest option and the policy enforces itself.
