Collaboration Provides Businesses with Unparalleled Insights into Open Source Licensing and Security
The Code Registry, a provider of AI-driven code intelligence, has announced a new strategic partnership with SCANOSS, a leader in open source software (OSS) intelligence. This partnership aims to help businesses gain deeper visibility into their codebases and better understand the risks associated with open source components, including security vulnerabilities and licensing obligations.
By incorporating SCANOSS’s extensive Knowledge Base (SCANOSS KB) into The Code Registry’s platform, users gain an unmatched level of transparency regarding their OSS usage. This integration allows organisations to identify open source libraries and dependencies, manage licensing requirements, evaluate risks associated with outdated or insecure components, and implement proactive strategies to mitigate security and legal threats.
“At The Code Registry, we believe that knowledge is power. By leveraging SCANOSS’s unparalleled OSS intelligence to complement our full suite of code intelligence, we’re equipping our customers with the deeper insights they need to manage their open source usage confidently and securely,” said Mark Purdy, CEO of The Code Registry. “This partnership underscores our commitment to helping businesses navigate the complex world of third-party software dependencies and risks at every level.”
Delivering Actionable Intelligence for Business Leaders
While open source software is crucial to modern development, it presents challenges when not properly tracked and managed. Many executives struggle to obtain clear insights from technical teams regarding the risks posed by OSS components. Through this partnership, The Code Registry and SCANOSS offer a solution that translates complex technical information into straightforward, actionable insights for business decision-makers.
“We are thrilled to partner with The Code Registry,” said Alan Facey, CEO of SCANOSS. “Our mission has always been to empower organisations with the insights needed to adopt open source safely and securely. By joining forces, we will extend our reach and help even more companies make informed decisions about their OSS strategies.”
“Today, organisations need clarity and speed when it comes to understanding their open source usage,” added Julian Coccia, CTO of SCANOSS. “This collaboration is a game-changer for businesses seeking real-time security and compliance data. We’re excited to see how our combined capabilities will shape the future of software risk management.”
Enhancing Transparency and Executive Collaboration
Beyond open source tracking, The Code Registry’s AI-powered platform provides a comprehensive analysis of code health. With over 4,000 rules and data points, it delivers insights into development team performance, cost-to-replicate valuations, security vulnerabilities, and compliance risks. This intelligence enables better collaboration between C-suite executives, IT teams, and other key stakeholders, ensuring alignment on strategic priorities.
