Socket scores A on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 15 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 20% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 121 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed
Overview
Socket detects supply chain attacks in open-source dependencies by analysing what a package actually does, not just its known vulnerabilities. It flags newly added install scripts, network access and obfuscated code in a pull request before the dependency ships. Engineering teams use it across npm, PyPI and other ecosystems.
