Obsidian, a note-taking app, employs a rigorous security strategy to mitigate supply chain attacks. This involves minimizing third-party dependencies, strictly version-pinning all dependencies with a lockfile and a thorough upgrade process (including line-by-line changelog reviews and extensive testing), avoiding postinstall scripts, and implementing a significant delay between dependency upgrades and releases to allow time for community and researcher detection of malicious versions. These measures significantly reduce Obsidian's vulnerability to supply chain attacks, ensuring user data security and privacy.
