Open Source Community Initiatives

Using open source code helps development teams save time and tap into the knowledge of domain experts who contribute to open source projects. Black Duck engages with open source security initiatives in multiple areas including best practices, information sharing, license compliance, software Bill of Materials (SBOM), API standardization, and more.

To help raise the bar for open source software security and stay informed about the latest development innovations, Black Duck employees serve or have served as subject matter experts for open source community initiatives—including working groups, programs, and projects related to open source governance, adoption, and success.
