The Impact of Media on Cybersecurity: Using Art to Visualize Software Supply Chain Security Trends & Increase Awareness of Popular Library Vulnerabilities
summary
Shows that media attention correlates with faster enterprise fixes by comparing coverage-driven remediation rates: scraped Sonatype 2022 trend data turned into a week-by-week percentage not vulnerable chart (90–95% marked as warm colors). Builds generative art from that dataset using p5.js visualizations after cleaning in Excel, publishes code and data on GitHub, produces a printed zine and projected self-portrait photos to reach nontechnical audiences, and highlights a popular unnamed library that lagged while log4shell remediated quickly.
