Workbrew: Defending The Open Source Supply Chain

X World 2026

Homebrew, the app store for developers and one of GitHub's most active projects, runs on 35M+ developer endpoints, growing faster than ever thanks to the AI boom. But open source is under attack: supply chain attacks rose 73% in 2025, and 2026 is worse. Trillions in economic activity depend on open source, yet security and compliance teams rightly question how much longer we can trust it.

At Workbrew we've built the missing compliance and security stack for Homebrew. Brandon Valentine, Director of Solutions Engineering, will show you firsthand how we're fighting back, and why enterprises worldwide are turning to us amid rising mistrust.
