Our Story
Mend, formerly known as WhiteSource, is an application security company built to secure today’s digital world. We want developers to do what they do best: build the applications that power the world. Our job is to keep those apps safe.
Mend was created in response to a challenge our founders encountered when selling Eurekify, their previous company. The buyers requested a software inventory and security scan as part of due diligence. Since the scan was not automated, the process was time-consuming, expensive, and riddled with potential errors. Our founders wanted to save other companies from this difficult experience, and Mend was born.
For us, application security is all about fixing. Our unique automated remediation technologies go beyond traditional detection-oriented solutions to solve the real problem: reducing application risk without impacting demanding development deadlines. It’s simple: To shrink the software threat landscape, you need to close the gaps. To close the gaps, you need Mend.
