Ossprey builds a platform that continuously scans open-source packages for malware and malicious code before those components reach production environments. The technology is designed to enable development teams to secure software without slowing engineering workflows. The company was founded by Nate Dunning and David Read in response to increasing supply chain attacks and the faster pace of development driven by AI coding assistants. Ossprey highlights that around 90% of enterprise software relies on open-source components and that attackers increasingly embed malicious code within trusted packages. The startup targets enterprise organisations building software at scale and plans to expand across the UK, Europe and North America while preparing for a larger funding round.
