The Window Attackers Count On
Detection isn’t the failure, trust and delay are.
The last wave of open-source attacks didn’t create a new problem. It exposed a structural weakness teams already had:
This Is Why You Keep Getting Burned
When npm ecosystems blow up or disclosure-day KEVs drop, the playbook collapses:
Attackers are automated. Your fixes aren’t.
Where It Actually Breaks: Application Libraries
Base images matter. Application libraries are the nightmare.
This is the part everyone ignores, until it’s blowing up their sprint.
So issues don’t get fixed. They get accepted.
That’s the real attack surface.
What Root Actually Does
Root becomes the security maintainer of record for the open-source software you already run.
We fix vulnerabilities inside your software, at adversary speed, without changing how you build or ship.
Every fix comes with proof: SBOM, VEX, provenance, attestation, full code diff.
Your stack doesn’t change. The exposure does.
Root runs when your team can’t.
