Defense-in-depth with Tidelift and software composition analysis

Learn how Tidelift’s data driven approach can help secure your software supply chain

Organizations increasingly rely on open source software to foster innovation that enhances their business capabilities and customer engagement. In fact, more than 90% of modern applications incorporate open source components, underscoring its pivotal role in the technology landscape. 

At the same time, organizations must balance technology innovation with the need to secure their software supply chain in an effort to reduce risks to their revenue, customer data, and business continuity requirements.

From reactive to proactive

Historically, organizations have used reactive SCA tools that are effective at identifying and resolving known vulnerabilities. While this method has helped reduce risks, it has also turned into an unending cycle of vulnerability remediation that consumes developer resources. 

Tidelift is taking a unique approach to solve this challenge, by partnering with the maintainers of thousands of the most-relied-upon open source packages and paying them to implement industry-leading secure software development practices and document the practices they follow. The result is a unique source of cross-ecosystem threat intelligence that organizations use to minimize cybersecurity risks. Organizations are using Tidelift’s data to:

Open source package insights

 

  • Proactively minimize security risks by assessing early indicators and only using open source software aligned with development and maintenance standards suitable for enterprise application development.

  • Improve vulnerability remediation capabilities with detailed insights, including the likelihood of impact, identification of false positives, and specific remediation guidance provided by the maintainers of the affected software.

  • Address licensing risks effectively with reliable and accurate first-party license data.

  • Strengthen the software supply chain by directly contributing to the compensation of maintainers, enabling them to enhance and sustain secure development practices.

Additionally Tidelift’s partnered maintainers are required to review and address existing and new vulnerabilities impacting their projects. As part of this work, they provide detailed insights that help identify false positive vulnerabilities, the actual impact capability, specific affected methods and access patterns, and available workaround and remediation measures.
