True Scale Application Security
Uncompromised trust in software for the regulated, AI-powered world
Software is an essential driver of growth and innovation in every industry. But risks are proliferating due to an avalanche of AI-generated code. And at the same time, software regulatory requirements are expanding globally, making accountability and compliance core requirements of doing business.
Only Black Duck frees organizations from tradeoffs between speed and accuracy, innovation velocity and compliance rigor, and budget realities and full integrity assurance. With Black Duck, security leaders can make smarter decisions and unleash business innovation with confidence.
Over 4,000 organizations worldwide trust Black Duck
