A huge number of applications today contain problematic code that nobody knows about. Problematic source code libraries can be difficult to identify and pose a risk to your applications. Developers and application owners often struggle to maintain applications that use multiple open source and third-party libraries, often leading to licensing risks, among others. High developer turnover amplifies risks when new developers inherit outdated libraries without knowing their issues. This can result in libraries with hidden vulnerabilities—licensing problems, back-level versions, and more—waiting to be exploited.
IBM Concert helps application teams deal with problematic source code libraries and licensing risks by providing visibility into the security and license risk of open-source and third-party libraries.
