Schedule a demo

Black Duck software composition analysis (SCA) solutions help you secure your software supply chain, automatically identifying open source and third-party dependencies in any codebase, application, or container.

Uncover every dependency

Multiple scan technologies give you a complete view of open source, third-party, and custom component dependencies in source code, containers, and binaries.

Accelerate remediation

Independently researched vulnerability, license, and component health insights streamline component selection, as well as issue prioritization and remediation.

Automated governance

Out-of-the-box and customizable policies enable you to integrate and automate open source governance into your development workflows and tool chains.

Modern applications aren’t just built, they’re assembled. Over 75% of the code comes from open source and third-party software supply chain dependencies. With Black Duck^® SCA, you can automatically track and manage the components used in your applications.

Know what's in your code

Combine fast direct and transitive dependency analysis with source and binary code scanning, and open source snippet detection to identify dependencies in any software—even AI-generated code.
