What Makes an Effective Open Source Security

  • Vulnerability Remediation

    The ability to not only find, but fix vulnerabilities in your code is key to reaping the time-saving benefits of open source code without taking on the technical debt of unseen dependencies.

  • DevOps-Friendly Integration

    Scan git repositories, scan containers, add a security gate in your CI/CD pipeline & use right alongside your IDE while you code. Protect yourself on all angles from the vulnerability creep in open source libraries you use.

  • Kubernetes-Ready

    Your workload inherits everything that comes with the base image you choose to build upon. Secure your workload by auto-scanning base images and receive updates and upgrade recommendations.

  • Automated Reporting

    Track organisational trends and vulnerability fix rates across teams and companies. No more hard work making management and compliance auditing reports.
