Sit back and relax, we take care of your Free and Open Source Software Management
Free and Open Source Software has become an integral part of most companies today, whether in IT infrastructure or software development. Companies that do avoid free and open source software often face strategic competitive disadvantages. However, the many advantages are countered by the risk of far-reaching legal consequences in the event of non-compliant use. Only those who maintain a detailed open source management in their company can benefit from all the advantages of open source.
Since exact open source management requires both time and expertise from trained personnel, it makes sense to outsource these processes and bring professionals on board.
We take over the open source management operations from you wholly or partially. We connect to your development and approval processes and work closely with your developers and legal department.
We analyze your code using the most advanced scanning tools and our expertise.
You receive comprehensive analysis reports with measures to eliminate license conflicts and license problems. Included is a bill of materials (BOM) containing information about the free and open source software used and the license conditions that apply.
With each analysis report, you receive a list of publicly known security vulnerabilities (CVEs) exposed by the free and open source software used.
We create detailed license documentation for you containing all relevant information to be disclosed for the free and open source software used and the corresponding license conditions. You can distribute this information directly to your customers.
You want to take care of your open source management on your own, but you lack the know-how? In open source trainings, we help you design and implement new open source management policies and processes. We offer stakeholder specific training for management and development.
