# Node Security Platform

Node Security Platform (NSP) was a vulnerability scanning service and command-line tool that checked Node.js projects for known security vulnerabilities by analyzing package.json and lockfiles against a curated advisory database maintained by the Node Security team. The platform was acquired by npm, Inc. in April 2018 and its functionality was integrated directly into npm as the native `npm audit` command starting with npm@6, with the standalone NSP service shutting down on September 30, 2018.

Note: Node Security Platform is no longer available as a standalone service. Its vulnerability scanning capabilities are now built into npm via the `npm audit` command. For current Node.js security scanning, use [npm audit](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v10/commands/npm-audit) which is included with npm 6.0 and later.
