As the demand on software development teams increases, developers are increasingly relying on open source libraries, or pre-built pieces of code available online. As a result, software today is rarely completely made of first-party code, and is more often “assembled” from other sources.

This whitepaper looks at the risks that open source presents, and what steps you can take to secure your code.
