Why artifact management can't stop at npm and Python

npm and Python get all the security attention, but attackers don't limit themselves to your highest-volume formats.

A Docker image, a Helm chart, or a Rust crate can all be an entry point. If your security policy is built around the formats you use most, the formats you've deprioritized become the blind spot.

This video breaks down why artifact management needs to be centralized across every package format, not just the popular ones:

• Why a "less popular with hackers" format isn't a "lower risk" format
• How per-format configuration creates gaps between formats that attackers can slip through
• Why security policy needs to be applied globally, agnostic of package format

One centralized platform closes those gaps. Separate tools for separate formats just recreate them.
