How this pattern/toolset protect against supply chain compromises of the dependencies used to build the "Datadog Agent" itself?

[trishankdatadog]

Apply pattern/toolset recursively. Software supply chain problems largely eventually solved this way.

[p932]

Is there any initiative in this direction towards applying this pattern on big dependency management tools (e.g maven, pip, npm)?

Yes, please see PEP 458: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0458/
