Analyzes npm and PyPI packages at the bytecode and AST level to detect obfuscated code, hidden install scripts, and suspicious patterns that static analysis alone would miss. Uses multi-layered inspection combining AST parsing, string deobfuscation, and behavioral pattern matching to identify malicious payloads before installation.
Unique: Uses multi-stage AST and bytecode analysis combined with behavioral heuristics to detect obfuscated payloads and install-time attacks that simpler regex or signature-based tools miss; maintains a continuously updated threat database of known malicious patterns across npm and PyPI ecosystems
vs alternatives: Deeper than npm audit (which only checks known CVEs) and more comprehensive than Snyk (which focuses on known vulnerabilities rather than zero-day obfuscation detection)
Identifies packages that mimic legitimate library names through character substitution, homoglyph attacks, or namespace confusion (e.g., 'lodash' vs 'lodash-es' vs 'lodash_es'). Uses edit-distance algorithms and visual similarity scoring combined with reputation analysis to flag suspicious package names before they're installed.
Unique: Combines edit-distance algorithms with visual similarity scoring and reputation analysis to detect both character-substitution typosquats and namespace-confusion attacks; maintains a curated list of known legitimate packages to establish baseline for comparison
vs alternatives: More sophisticated than simple string matching — detects visual homoglyphs and namespace confusion that basic typo checkers miss
Scans package source code and dependencies for embedded telemetry, analytics, and tracking code that phones home without explicit user consent. Identifies API calls to analytics services, beacon URLs, and data exfiltration patterns by analyzing network calls and data serialization in package code.
Unique: Performs static analysis of network calls and data serialization patterns to identify telemetry infrastructure; maintains a database of known analytics and tracking services to flag suspicious outbound connections in package code
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than license scanning — actively detects privacy violations rather than just checking licensing compliance
Verifies package authenticity by analyzing publisher identity, publication history, and behavioral patterns to detect account hijacking or impersonation. Tracks publisher reputation across versions, flags sudden changes in maintainer identity, and identifies packages published by newly-created accounts with suspicious characteristics.
Unique: Analyzes temporal patterns in publisher behavior and account metadata to detect account takeovers; maintains reputation scores that degrade when suspicious activity is detected, allowing detection of compromises that don't involve code changes
vs alternatives: Detects compromised accounts even when malicious code isn't present — catches supply chain attacks at the publisher level before malicious code is injected
Analyzes entire dependency trees (including transitive dependencies) to calculate cumulative risk scores and identify high-risk paths through the dependency graph. Uses graph traversal to find all packages reachable from direct dependencies and flags if any transitive dependency introduces unacceptable risk.
Unique: Performs full dependency graph traversal with risk propagation to identify high-risk paths; provides remediation suggestions by finding alternative dependency versions that reduce overall tree risk
vs alternatives: Goes beyond npm audit's CVE checking to analyze the entire dependency tree for zero-day risks and behavioral anomalies, not just known vulnerabilities
Integrates with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins) to automatically block pull requests or deployments if dependencies violate configurable security policies. Enforces rules like 'no packages with risk score >50' or 'no packages from new publishers' and provides detailed reports in PR comments.
Unique: Provides native integrations with major CI/CD platforms with customizable policy engines; generates human-readable PR comments that educate developers about security risks rather than just blocking silently
vs alternatives: More actionable than generic security scanning tools — provides specific remediation suggestions and integrates directly into developer workflows
Continuously monitors installed packages for newly-discovered vulnerabilities and behavioral anomalies, pushing alerts in real-time via webhooks or email. Uses a streaming architecture to detect when a previously-safe package becomes compromised and notifies teams immediately rather than waiting for scheduled scans.
Unique: Uses streaming architecture with real-time threat intelligence feeds to detect newly-compromised packages within minutes of discovery; integrates with incident response platforms via webhooks
vs alternatives: Faster than scheduled vulnerability scans — detects zero-day supply chain attacks in real-time rather than waiting for daily/weekly scans
Analyzes package licenses and legal metadata to flag compliance risks, GPL/AGPL contamination, and incompatible license combinations. Identifies packages with restrictive licenses that may conflict with your project's licensing model and provides remediation suggestions.
Unique: Combines license metadata analysis with legal risk assessment to identify not just license types but also compatibility conflicts and contamination risks; provides alternative package suggestions with compatible licenses
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than simple license scanners — detects transitive license contamination and provides remediation suggestions
+2 more capabilities
Evaluates LLM outputs against curated question sets spanning three distinct hazard domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical security) using domain-expert-validated benchmarks. The assessment framework maps model responses to risk levels within each domain, enabling quantitative measurement of dangerous capability presence. Responses are scored against rubrics developed by security domain experts to identify whether models can produce actionable harmful information.
Unique: Combines expert-validated questions across three distinct security domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical) into a unified benchmark framework, rather than treating each domain separately. Uses domain-expert rubrics for scoring rather than automated classifiers, ensuring nuanced assessment of harmful capability presence.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than single-domain safety benchmarks (e.g., ToxiGen for toxicity) because it measures dangerous knowledge across multiple hazard categories simultaneously, enabling holistic safety evaluation.
Provides standardized evaluation infrastructure to measure the effectiveness of unlearning techniques (methods that remove dangerous capabilities from trained models) by comparing model performance before and after unlearning interventions. The framework isolates the impact of unlearning by holding the benchmark constant while varying the model state, enabling quantitative assessment of whether dangerous knowledge has been successfully suppressed.
Unique: Provides a standardized evaluation harness specifically designed for unlearning research, with built-in comparison logic and side-effect detection. Unlike generic benchmarks, it explicitly measures delta between model states and flags unintended capability loss.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than ad-hoc unlearning evaluation because it enforces consistent benchmark administration, statistical testing, and side-effect measurement across all methods being compared.
WMDP scores higher at 63/100 vs Socket.dev at 55/100. Socket.dev leads on quality, while WMDP is stronger on ecosystem.

Implements a structured scoring framework where model responses to dangerous knowledge questions are evaluated against expert-developed rubrics that assess the degree of hazard (e.g., specificity, actionability, completeness of harmful information). Responses are scored on multi-point scales (typically 0-4 or 0-5) rather than binary pass/fail, capturing nuance in how dangerous a model's output actually is. Rubrics are domain-specific (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical) and developed by subject matter experts to ensure validity.
Unique: Uses domain-expert-developed multi-point rubrics rather than automated classifiers or binary labels, enabling nuanced assessment of dangerous knowledge severity. Rubrics are calibrated to distinguish between vague, incomplete, and highly actionable harmful information.
vs alternatives: More interpretable and defensible than black-box classifiers because rubric criteria are explicit and expert-validated; enables stakeholders to understand why a response received a particular score.
Analyzes patterns in how dangerous knowledge correlates across the three benchmark domains (biosecurity, cybersecurity, chemical security), identifying whether models that excel at suppressing one type of hazard tend to suppress others. The analysis uses statistical correlation and clustering techniques to reveal whether dangerous capabilities are independent or coupled in model behavior. This enables understanding of whether unlearning interventions have domain-specific or global effects.
Unique: Explicitly analyzes relationships between dangerous knowledge across domains rather than treating each domain independently. Enables discovery of whether hazards are coupled or independent in model behavior.
vs alternatives: Provides deeper insight than single-domain benchmarks by revealing how safety properties interact across different hazard categories, informing more effective unlearning strategies.
Manages the creation, validation, and versioning of benchmark questions and rubrics through a structured curation pipeline involving domain experts, adversarial testing, and iterative refinement. The pipeline ensures questions are sufficiently difficult to elicit dangerous knowledge without being unrealistic, and rubrics are calibrated through inter-rater agreement studies. Version control enables tracking of benchmark evolution and ensures reproducibility across research papers.
Unique: Implements a formal curation pipeline with expert validation and inter-rater agreement checks, rather than ad-hoc question collection. Versioning enables reproducible research and transparent tracking of benchmark evolution.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than informal benchmarks because it enforces expert review, inter-rater validation, and version control, reducing bias and enabling reproducible comparisons across papers.
Provides a unified interface for evaluating diverse LLM architectures (open-source models, API-based models, fine-tuned variants) by abstracting away implementation differences. The abstraction handles API calls (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), local inference (Hugging Face, Ollama), and custom model serving, enabling consistent benchmark administration across heterogeneous model types. This enables fair comparison between models with different deployment modalities.
Unique: Abstracts away differences between API-based, local, and custom-deployed models through a unified interface, enabling fair comparison without reimplementing benchmark logic for each model type.
vs alternatives: More flexible than model-specific benchmarks because it supports any LLM architecture without code changes, reducing friction for researchers evaluating new models.
Implements rigorous statistical testing to determine whether differences in dangerous knowledge scores between models or unlearning methods are statistically significant or due to random variation. Uses techniques like bootstrap confidence intervals, permutation tests, and effect size estimation to quantify uncertainty in benchmark results. This prevents overconfident claims about safety improvements that may not be robust.
Unique: Integrates formal statistical testing into the benchmark evaluation pipeline rather than relying on point estimates, ensuring claims about safety improvements are statistically justified.
vs alternatives: More rigorous than informal comparisons because it quantifies uncertainty and prevents overconfident claims about safety improvements that may not be robust to sampling variation.
Employs adversarial testing techniques to validate that benchmark questions reliably elicit dangerous knowledge and cannot be easily circumvented by prompt engineering. Red-teamers attempt to find questions that fail to elicit dangerous knowledge or rubric edge cases, and the benchmark is iteratively refined based on findings. This ensures the benchmark is robust to adversarial adaptation and captures genuine dangerous capabilities rather than surface-level patterns.
Unique: Incorporates formal red-teaming into the benchmark validation pipeline rather than assuming questions are robust, ensuring the benchmark remains effective against adversarial adaptation.
vs alternatives: More robust than static benchmarks because it actively searches for evasion techniques and iteratively refines questions, reducing the risk that models can circumvent the benchmark through prompt engineering.
