A supply chain attack is a cybersecurity threat in which malicious actors compromise software, hardware, or services by infiltrating trusted third-party providers rather than targeting end users directly. In blockchain and crypto ecosystems, such attacks can involve compromised libraries, wallet software updates, cloud infrastructure, or development tools. Because these components are widely used, a single breach can have cascading effects across multiple platforms or protocols. Supply chain attacks are particularly dangerous because they exploit trust assumptions and are difficult to detect. Preventing them requires rigorous code audits, dependency management, cryptographic verification, and decentralised infrastructure design.
