Cut Engineering Overhead

As an engineer, you need to build as quickly and efficiently as possible. When you find an Open Source solution you want to just start using it. However, often your company will require to go through some sort of approval processes become you can use it. This takes time and adds friction when you just want to get the package and get your job done.

With OSSPREY, you can validate that the code is safe to use immediately and be able to start working with it straight away.

Simplify your Security

Integrate OSSPREY into your development environment or software pipelines to have full visibility of your Open Source and stop malware before it can impact you.

Reduce the cost of Tech Debt

Discovering embedded malware after it's been built into production is a messy, hands-on incident. This nightmare could include rolling back versions, rewriting previously functioning code, cascading breakages, and tons of hidden tech debt.

Use OSSPREY to stop Open Source Malware before it can impact you.

The Solution

Detect and Neutralize Threats: Automatically detect and stop malicious code using Machine Learning and AI models built against our proprietary Open Source Attack Matrix.
Comprehensive Coverage: Works seamlessly across the software supply chain.
Integration: With 7 lines in your Github actions you can be set up to scan for malware
Ease of Use: Minimal setup and integration with existing tools.

Case Study

One company cared deeply about making sure that the code they built and ran was trusted. In order to do this they made sure that any open source libraries or Github repositories they used had been vetted by their security team before they could be used. However, engineers would find easy ways to solve problems with open source but be blocked on approval. This process was time consuming and often led to delays, sometimes hours sometimes days.

These delays led to frustration and, worse, risky workarounds. Engineers started adopting anti-patterns such as:

Using the package without approval and hoping for the best
Rebuilding/recreating the package themselves, wasting countless hours
Copying and modifying code internally in a hacky and ad-hoc manner

As a result, the company faced several issues:

They believed their codebase was fully secure when, in reality, it wasn’t
They ended up with poorly maintained, hard-to-update, fragmented code
Engineers were slowed down, leading to inefficiency, frustration, and disconnects with the Cybersecurity department

This was the worst of both worlds; slower development with no real security guarantees.

With OSSPREY, these issues were completely resolved. The company's engineers were able to:

Use open-source code immediately, allowing engineers to build at pace
Gain full visibility into the code being used
Demonstrate to their security team that the code was safe and vetted

Instant Assurance

Use Open Source immediately without having to worry about potential malware compromise.
