Dep Oracle FAQs

Question 1

How is Dep Oracle different from tools like `npm audit`?

Accepted Answer

While `npm audit` focuses on known CVEs, Dep Oracle proactively predicts future risks by evaluating a package's overall health, maintainer activity, and other factors, catching issues before they are officially reported as vulnerabilities.

Question 2

Which package ecosystems does Dep Oracle support?

Accepted Answer

Dep Oracle currently supports npm (Node.js) and Python packages, analyzing their direct and transitive dependencies for potential security and maintenance risks.

Question 3

What is Dep Oracle?

Accepted Answer

Dep Oracle is a predictive dependency security engine that assigns a 'Trust Score' (0-100) to every package in your project's dependency tree, helping you identify and mitigate supply chain risks before they become vulnerabilities.

Question 4

How does Dep Oracle predict supply chain risks?

Accepted Answer

It uses a sophisticated algorithm based on six weighted metrics: security history, maintainer health, activity, popularity, funding, and license. It also detects issues like zombie dependencies, typosquatting, and predicts future risk trends.

Question 5

Can Dep Oracle help me replace risky dependencies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Dep Oracle includes a 'Migration Advisor' feature that suggests safer, actively maintained alternative packages for risky or unmaintained dependencies identified in your project, complete with migration context.
