JavaScript
Secure the Largest Open Source Ecosystem
npm hosts over 2 million packages, making it the biggest attack surface in open source. ActiveState builds JavaScript packages from source and delivers them through the registries your team already uses.

npm install from a vetted registry
Point your .npmrc at your Curated Catalog instead of the public npm registry. Every package ships with full build provenance and verified licensing, and your team keeps using npm, yarn, or pnpm without changes.
Native integration with npm, yarn, and pnpm
Direct delivery through Artifactory, Nexus, and GitHub Packages
Compatible with AI coding assistants pulling JavaScript dependencies
AI-generated code meets vetted dependencies
When GitHub Copilot or Cursor suggests a new package, that suggestion resolves against your Curated Catalog instead of the open internet. No hallucinated dependencies, no typosquatting risk, no rogue imports.

Transitive dependencies are where supply chain attacks hide
The average npm install pulls a dependency tree hundreds of packages deep. ActiveState builds and tracks every layer, including the packages your team never explicitly chose but your application still depends on.
How ActiveState Delivers Secure JavaScript
Curated Catalog
Curate a private registry of vetted npm packages and deliver them through your existing artifact repository. Developers keep using npm install, and security teams control what enters the environment.

Secure Containers
Deploy low-to-no CVE Node.js container images for production. Every image is built from source and maintained with SLA-backed remediation.

FAQs
Does ActiveState work with my existing package.json?
Yes. Your Curated Catalog serves packages in the native npm format. Existing package.json files, lockfiles, and CI/CD pipelines work without modifications.
How does ActiveState protect against typosquatting?
Every package in the catalog is built from verified upstream source code. Malicious or suspicious packages are blocked before they enter the catalog, eliminating typosquatting and dependency confusion risks.
What about private packages alongside ActiveState packages?
Your Curated Catalog integrates with your existing artifact repository, so private packages and ActiveState packages coexist in the same registry without conflicts.
