Modern Art of Open Source Management
Software Supply Chain Security, Software Composition Analysis and Open Source Compliance are matters of growing concern. As Software eats the World more and more distributed device will host Software, which rarely will be built without Open Source. In the same time the Software Supply Chain is about to fragment even further with all the Open Source around. Thus, the provider / distributor of such devices must ensure a proper and sound Open Source documentation to prevent costly call backs , criminal prosecution or bad press due to unmanaged vulnerabilities. TrustSource offers tooling and processes as well as intelligence to solve the related issues in a smart and automated way. Thus your compliance officers may focus on what they are best at: approve compliance!
