👀 We’re excited to share what’s to come in our next release of FossID Workbench! Version 24.3 is focused on enhanced #AppSec and your ability to quickly access actionable security vulnerability and exploitability information. Major enhancements include better visibility of #VEX information within a security-centric UX and broader #SBOM + VEX support. 📰 Read the press release for more details. https://buff.ly/4fHaq1U

💡How are #GenAI coding tools handling software copyright and license compliance? AI coding assistants may offer “copyright commitments” to help software devs feel protected from copyright infringement. That's a great initiative as it points out how important it is to responsibly use third-party and open-source software in your own projects. But remember, these tools have limits as to what they can cover, and they don’t address license obligations. To truly leverage AI Coding Assistants without introducing legal or IP risk, teams need both copyright protection and a clear understanding of license terms. Copyright protects the creator’s rights; license compliance keeps us aligned with usage agreements. When it comes to finding third-party software in AI-generated code, precise code snippet detection and automated license identification is absolutely necessary. Learn more at FossID.com .

🤔 Did you know that a few lines of unvetted code can open the door to legal risks? In our audits, we’ve found that 25% of open-source snippets in codebases come from copyleft libraries. This means that a small or modified fragment of open source code could make your entire codebase legally obligated to disclose source code! 💬 Have you checked your codebase for snippets of third-party licensed code? Learn more in this article 👇 https://buff.ly/40vPt5F #OpenSourceRisk #SoftwareRiskManagement #SCA

Options are important. We have spent a lot of time explaining the different routes to conformance to ISO/IEC 5230, the international standard for open source license compliance. One of the most detailed was a Mini-Summit featuring four speakers covering everything from self-certification to third-party certification: https://hubs.la/Q02XG0780 This Mini-Summit is equally applicable to the type of approach required for ISO/IEC 18974, the international standard for open source security assurance. The same structures, the same basic actions and the same approaches to self-certification and third-party certification exist. You can learn more about adopting either standard here: https://hubs.la/Q02XF_tg0 Regardless, do check out the Mini-Summit. It can tell you a lot about adopting any ISO standard related to process management. The key to understanding lies in familiarity with the mental models being used.

🔎 Don’t let code snippets slip through the cracks! Partial snippets, large or small, of licensed third-party code can present serious legal risks. We found that 89% of codebases contain open source snippets. It’s critical to have complete visibility and accurate license information. Without effective snippet detection, you could be exposed to legal and intellectual property claims. 💬 Are you confident in your code’s license compliance? Read our article to learn how snippet detection can reduce your software supply chain risk 👉 https://buff.ly/40vPt5F #OpenSourceLicenseCompliance #SoftwareAudit #SCA

Thanks to all of our great partners and clients for making the FossID User Group Japan 2024 a success! It was an honor to discuss with you all of the latest trends in software supply chain risk management. We had perspectives from #automotive , #consumerelectronics , #industrialautomation , #semiconductor markets to name a few. A special thank you to Shoken Kim , Stuart Dross , and Tomas Gonzalez Blasini as well as our partners, Grape Systems, Tech Matrix, and Snyk !

Managing third-party code is a critical part of software development, and having a dedicated team like an OSPO (Open Source Program Office) can make all the difference. 🏢 For those unfamiliar, an OSPO is the hub of open-source expertise within a company—sometimes formal, sometimes informal. It often oversees policies, process approvals, and software inventory management, making it a natural fit for managing SBOMs (Software Bill of Materials). Here’s why an OSPO can be an invaluable resource for your SBOM efforts: ✅ Scalability: OSPOs offer a scalable method to manage and track open-source tools and processes. ✅ Tooling & Automation: The right tools and processes are key to generating accurate SBOMs. Manual tracking is not sustainable—automation is essential. ✅ Accuracy & Completeness: It’s critical to ensure your SBOMs are accurate and complete, avoiding false positives or false negatives, and giving users the full picture of what’s in your software. By leveraging an OSPO, you can build a system that enhances transparency, security, and efficiency across your open-source usage. #OSPO #OpenSource #SBOM #SoftwareManagement #Automation #TechLeadership

The #automotive industry 🚗 , a cornerstone of Japan’s economy 🇯🇵, has risen from 6th to 2nd place since 2023 as one of the industries that would benefit most from investing in open source. With the rise of the software-defined vehicle movement and the prevalence of C/C++ code in this industry, FossID is excited to support our clients with our ability to scan unmanaged code, identify snippets with accuracy and efficiency, FossID delivers reliable visibility of both security vulnerability and license compliance risks. Helping automotive manufacturers fully leverage #opensource is a big topic for the FossID User Group in Tokyo this week. 🗼 #SBOM #AutomotiveTech #LicenseCompliance #Japan #opensource #AppSec #GenAI

🙌 We’re excited to host our Japanese clients and partners at the FossID Japan User Group this week in Tokyo. The agenda is packed including: - SBOM Evolution & Maturity - Updates on Regulations Around the Globe - Impact of AI-Generated Code - FossID Product Roadmap #opensource #AppSec #GenAI #SBOM
