Application Security Products

Today’s software development world is complex and fast-paced. Software engineers are under increasing pressure to deliver large, high quality applications in less time, with fewer resources. As a result, the use of community-based open source software components has become one of the most dominant trends in software development.

Applications developed within the last five years – whether internal or external – typically contain at least 50% open source software and other third-party components, much of which is undocumented, not formally identified and tracked as part of a software project or product.

Palamida software is the industry’s first solution to address the gap in application security for open source. How do we do it? Our software composition analyzer identifies every code snippet, binary file, image, text, and all other content from open source projects that sit hidden inside your software and web–based applications. Nothing goes unnoticed. Nothing goes undocumented.

You will never be surprised by vulnerabilities from undocumented open source software that could leave you open to data breaches. You will never be surprised by accidental IP infringements.

Our software protects you throughout the development cycle - from the first phase of application development through testing and even after deployment. And by doing this, for the first time, managers, security professionals, and lawyers now have direct insight into the vulnerability and intellectual property risks of your applications before they become problems. Before they become lawsuits. Before they become a compliance violation.

Undocumented code poses a significant risk to organizations for a number of reasons, from license concerns to unrecognized attack vectors. While open source is no more risky than proprietary code in its essence, the proliferation of open source can expand the attack surface by introducing complex vulnerabilities into the code base,” says Charles Kolodgy, IDC Research Director, Security Products Team. “It is critical that organizations handle undocumented and open source code as an integral part of their application security process.

 

Palamida’s application security products are a groundbreaking approach to software composition analysis and have been proven in some of the world’s largest and most demanding development environments.

Palamida Enterprise Edition, our flagship product, is designed for organizations concerned with managing both vulnerability and intellectual property issues.

Palamida Standard Edition is designed for organizations primarily concerned with security vulnerabilities introduced through undocumented use of open source components.

Palamida Compliance Edition is for organizations whose primary concerns are managing open source license obligations, restrictions and conflicts.

Palamida Professional Services play a decisive role when time is tight, and domain expertise is essential in auditing for open source use.
