Automating Software Security Checks for Open Source Software and SDKs
Presented by Eric Castro
A modern approach to security checks for third-party software through automation.
The growth of open source software (OSS) and third-party SDKs has been on the rise over the last five years, and for good reason. They provide developers with many of the necessary features to build a robust and dynamic apps increasing the appeal to a wider range of users.
While the value of using OSS and SDKs is obvious to most, there is also a downside to incorporating someone else’s code into your app. There can be privacy violations, security vulnerabilities, and other risks embedded in the third-party code. This puts the onus on development teams and their security counterparts to ensure that unsound code in OSS and SDKs is found and fixed before use.
