WhiteSource Extends Offering to IaC Security, Unveiling Research Report on npm Vulnerability Remediation At AWS Re:Invent

The Software Composition Analysis leader now offers infrastructure as code (IaC) security and supply chain malware detection and mitigation for JavaScript and Ruby programming languages. 

TEL AVIV AND BOSTON – November 22, 2021 – WhiteSource, a leader in open source security and management, today announced that it will be attending AWS re:Invent in Las Vegas, November 29 – December 3, 2021.  The event, celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, brings together experts from around the world to discuss key topics about the power of cloud technology. 

At AWS re:Invent WhiteSource will unveil a new research report on security issues in npm packages. According to the vulnerability data presented in WhiteSource’s report, over 90% of vulnerable npm packages could be remediated by WhiteSource Renovate.  Renovate is a proactive dependency update technology that resolves security vulnerabilities before their publication in the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), at which point they become common knowledge to all users — including malicious players.

WhiteSource is proud to sponsor AWS re:Invent 2021 and will be hosting at booth #1657.

WhiteSource has been an Amazon Web Services Inc.(AWS) APN member since 2018, and its industry leading open source security management technology is integrated with many AWS services such as Code Build, EKS, ECR, CloudFormation and Lambda. The WhiteSource solution is available on the AWS Marketplace

“There are massive synergies between WhiteSource and AWS, and we are delighted to work with the world’s leading cloud provider,” said Rami Sass, WhiteSource Co-Founder and CEO. “With WhiteSource technology becoming the industry standard for proactive dependency maintenance, our partnership with AWS provides our customers with even more benefits along with our better-together story.”
