Axios npm Package Compromised: Supply Chain Attack Delivers Cross-Platform RAT

On March 31, 2026, two malicious versions of axios, the enormously popular JavaScript HTTP client with over 100 million weekly downloads, were briefly published to npm via a compromised maintainer account. The packages contained a hidden dependency that deployed a cross-platform remote access trojan (RAT) to any machine that ran npm install (or equivalent in other package managers like Bun) during a two-hour window. The malicious versions (1.14.1 and 0.30.4) were removed from npm by 03:29 UTC.

What is Configuration Drift? 5 Best Practices for Your Team's Security Posture

The Case for an Independent MFA Layer in Microsoft Environments

The quiet shift no one talks about. Something happened over the past few years that most MSPs didn't plan for. Their customers moved to Microsoft 365, adopted Entra ID as their identity provider, and started using Microsoft Authenticator for MFA. It made sense at the time. It was simple, it was included in the license, and it worked. But somewhere along the way, a strategic decision was made by default. Microsoft became the identity provider, directory, credential store, and MFA provider. All at once.
