Outsourcing Open Source Pains: Delivering Business Value With Minimized Risk

Webinar - Outsourcing Your Open Source Pains

Chances are, your applications are built using open source software. But with the innovation that open source provides comes significant maintenance costs and risks. Estimates show that developers spend 30% of their time on software maintenance, while 84% of codebases contain known open source vulnerabilities. Is it worth dealing with these problems in-house?

The fact is, your organization should be focusing on delivering business value, rather than shifting the security burden to your developers, especially as software supply chain attacks are growing at 633% per year.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss how you can outsource your open source supply chain in terms of remediating vulnerabilities, keeping languages and dependencies up-to-date, and refactoring your codebase without the risk of breaking changes.

Learn about:

  • The current state of your software supply chain development lifecycle
  • Decreasing security risk by building all dependencies securely from source
  • Minimizing maintenance costs and gaining back 30% or more developer time
  • Empowering development teams to remain agile and innovative
  • Gaining observability of open source dependencies and where they’re deployed, plus implementing consistent environments at scale

Get peace of mind by securing your software supply chain and staying up-to-date – focus on your core competencies, ensure security from source through production, and gain a competitive advantage!
