How to Install the TFS Extension

This video shows you how to install the Mend.io extension for Team Foundation Server (TFS) and integrate it seamlessly into your DevOps workflow.

In just a few minutes, you’ll learn how to connect Mend.io with your TFS environment and begin scanning for open source security and license risks as part of your automated pipelines.

Why integrate Mend.io with TFS?

Integrating Mend.io into your TFS pipelines allows you to shift security left by automatically scanning your projects for open source vulnerabilities and license compliance issues—early in the development cycle. With the TFS extension in place, Mend.io becomes part of your CI/CD process, ensuring that software quality and security are checked before code reaches production.

This integration gives teams greater visibility into the risks in their dependencies and allows for immediate remediation, helping you meet compliance requirements and reduce the cost of late-stage security fixes.
