Hello, Superbloom is running a survey of users across multiple programming language ecosystems on behalf of the OpenSSF, looking at understanding how developers, software engineers and open source software users  understand the security, safety and integrity of the packages they install and their 'open source software supply chains'.

We’re interested in speaking to people who have no/little experience of this topic and also those that have thought and investigated this extensively. Beginners are as important to learn from as experts.

Your insights, opinions and experiences will help to inform a project looking at the accessibility, understanding and visual communication of package security information.

This short form helps us understand if you’d be a good fit for the 1 hour long user research conversations.

It has two parts:

1. Demographic information about you
2. Your experience with assessing the safety/security of the packages you install

Both sections should take you 5-10 minutes to complete.  

Note: The survey is anonymous and requires no personal information. It is administered on a platform called Limesurvey, an open-source platform that neither discloses any user data publicly nor transfers any user data to any third party without explicit consent. Our Limesurvey instance is hosted by our team at Superbloom Design.  You can review Limesurvey’s Privacy Policy here.
