Discover the straightforward and cost-effective way to manage open-source components with Kiuwan Software Composition Analysis, and ensure your software is secure, compliant, and up-to-date.
Software Composition Analysis (SCA) is a process that identifies and manages open-source components within a codebase. It is crucial because it helps developers and organizations ensure that their applications are secure, compliant, and up-to-date by detecting vulnerabilities, license compliance issues, and obsolete components. SCA tools like Kiuwan automate this process, providing continuous monitoring and actionable insights to mitigate risks and improve overall software quality.
SCA integrates seamlessly into the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) by embedding security checks at various stages of development. Tools like Kiuwan SCA can be incorporated into CI/CD pipelines, version control systems, and development environments, enabling continuous scanning and monitoring of open-source components. This integration ensures that security and compliance are maintained throughout the development process, from coding to deployment.
Kiuwan is the best of the SCA tools because it is designed to detect a wide range of vulnerabilities in open-source components by continuously scanning databases such as the NIST National Vulnerability Database. While SCA tools are highly effective in identifying known vulnerabilities, it is important to complement them with other security measures like Static Application Security Testing (SAST) and dynamic testing to ensure comprehensive coverage of potential risks.
SCA tools help manage license compliance by identifying the licenses associated with each open-source component used in a project. They provide detailed information on license terms and conditions, helping organizations avoid legal risks associated with improper use of open-source software. By managing license obligations proactively, SCA tools ensure that all components are used in accordance with their licenses, preventing potential legal issues.
