Find out how the top 10 SCA vendors rank and why Forrester named Mend a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Software Composition Analysis, Q3 2021 report.
Forrester reports that open source components made up 75% of all code bases in 2020, up from 36% in 2015. As firms increasingly rely on external components to develop new functionality quickly, they expose themselves and their customers to greater risk when those components include critical vulnerabilities or don’t conform to company policies. In addition, recent incidents like the SolarWinds breach demonstrate the risks of malicious libraries in software and the need for greater transparency in the software supply chain. In order to secure your enterprise, your company needs the right SCA solution.
