Strategies and Tactics Managing Open-Source Risk (Part 2)
Open-source software (OSS) is critical to software development by accelerating time to market while reducing operating costs. But like any software, OSS introduces layers of risk—both security and IP. Successfully managing OSS is increasingly tied to automating application security processes. Leveraging automation, organizations can track open-source components in use, understand underlying layers of risk, and enable effective mitigation actions. In this Inside AppSec podcast interview, the second podcast in a two-part series, Contrast Security’s Sr. Product Marketing Manager for Contrast OSS Joe Coletta delves into what organizations need to do when securing OSS—involving everything from having the right security policies in place, to establishing continuous visibility, to filtering out noise to focus on the risk that matters most.
