In Forrester’s 33-criterion evaluation of software composition analysis providers, Forrester identified the 10 most significant ones — WhiteSource, Flexera, FOSSA, GitLab, JFrog,Snyk, Sonatype, Synopsys, Veracode and WhiteHat Security— and researched, analyzed,and scored them. This report shows how each provider measures up and helps security professionals select the right one for their needs.
Open source components are the core building blocks of application software, providing developers with a wealth of off-the-shelf possibilities that they can use for assembling their products faster and more efficiently. This joint report by Microsoft and WhiteSource discusses the difference in finding & fixing vulnerabilities in open source components opposed to proprietary code, how to grasp the unique challenges of open source security and how to tackle them, as well as how to master the best practices of managing your open source security risks.
These days, there’s an app for virtually anything. Enabling rapid application development and deployment of these apps is a nearendless body of components, most of which are opensource: code, scripts, artifacts and more. But while these components are driving faster development and deployment, they also can be a security nightmare for companies that fail to manage and secure them effectively—a scenario that has proven catastrophic in several high-profile incidents over the last few years.
We conducted a survey of more than 400 organizations to understand their policies,processes and tools in managing the risk associated with the use of open source components in their applications.
When it comes to digitization, here’s the reality:
We’ve spent the last 30 years having the way we live, interact, and shop be completely disrupted by the rise of digital channels.

Sana Commerce and Magento are both e-commerce platform providers. Sana Commerce is an ERP-integrated e-commerce platform that focuses on B2B wholesalers, distributors and manufacturers.

Integration platforms as a service (iPaaS) provide a centralized console to manage, govern, and integrate cloud-based applications. These tools work by connecting cloud applications and services, and controlling integration flows. They can speed up product development by integrating existing tools, and increase data volume by utilizing external sources. Companies use these tools to scale performance needs, add product functionality, and structure application integrations. Features or data can be added or removed quickly, reducing failover, downtime, and development time. There is some relationship between iPaaS and ESB software, but iPaaS is typically used for customer-facing applications, while ESB is used for internal data transfers and updates.
Highly decentralized computing is the new normal for most organizations, and digital transformation (DX) initiatives are changing application architectures to event driven to support real-time and near-real-time response cycles. In this environment, enterprises are increasingly turning to messaging middleware to meet the combined requirements of complexity, speed, reliability, and security to connect the digital world of applications and data.
