    SCANOSS

    SCANOSS

    SCANOSS

    SCANOSS believes now is the time to reinvent Software Composition Analysis with a goal of ‘start left’ and a focus first on the foundation of reliable SCA, the SBOM. An SBOM that does not require a small army of auditors to make it usable. So, SCANOSS provides an SBOM that that is ‘always on’. SCANOSS released the first entirely Open Source SCA software platform for Open Source Inventorying, specifically designed for modern development (DevOps) environments. SCANOSS also released the first Open OSS Knowledge Base, free to the community. Our architecture is API-centric, built for developers. The “shift left” paradigm brings license compliance validation to the earliest possible stage in a development process. We can go as left as intercepting a CTRL-V in your IDE before undeclared Open Source is pasted. The first Open Source Inventorying engine built specifically for modern development and DevOps teams of all sizes.

Think of Phylum like a firewall for open-source code. Phylum’s database of open-source software supply chain risks is the most comprehensive and scalable offering available, and can be deployed throughout the development lifecycle depending on an organization’s infrastructure and appsec program maturity: in front of artifact repository managers, directly with package managers or in CI/CD pipelines. The Phylum policy library allows users to toggle on the blocking of critical vulnerabilities, attacks like typosquats, obfuscated code and dependency confusion, copyleft licenses, and more. Users can also leverage OPA to create custom policies.
