Open source risk management for enterprise
Master the chaos of your software supply chain. Proactively manage risk with precise SBOM generation.
Mend Software Composition Analysis (SCA) helps manage open source risk and generates a precise inventory of a software’s third party components.
The problem
Adhering to software supply chain security standards is a complex hurdle
Evolving regulation
New laws and standards are constantly emerging, making it difficult to stay compliant.
Complex ecosystems
Identifying and assessing risks across multiple tiers of suppliers is time-consuming and resource-intensive.
SBOM formats
Inconsistent SBOM formats and data exchange hinder efficient risk assessment and compliance efforts.
The solution
Mend SCA automates SBOM generation and management
Generate SBOMs and VEX
Mend SCA generates precise SBOMs for all dependencies, covering SPDX, CycloneDX, and VEX format exports. It automates SBOM creation, integrates with CI/CD, and provides in-depth vulnerability and license insights.
Stop malicious packages
Mend goes below the surface and scans for malicious packages like protestware, data stealers, and crypto miners with unmatched accuracy.
Identify & prioritize dependency risk
Mend SCA scans for vulnerabilities in your direct and transitive dependencies, analyzes the risk in context of your application, and automatically issues pull requests to help developers keep their code bases secure and compliant.

“One of our most indicative KPIs is the amount of time for us to remediate vulnerabilities and also the amount of time developers spend fixing vulnerabilities in our code base, which has reduced significantly. We’re talking about at least 80% reduction in time.”
“When the product you sell is an application you develop, your teams need to be fast, secure and compliant. These three factors often work in opposite directions. Mend provides the opportunity to align these often competing factors, providing Vonage with an advantage in a very competitive marketplace.”
“The biggest value we get out of Mend is the fast feedback loop, which enables our developers to respond rapidly to any vulnerability or license issues. When a vulnerability or a license is disregarded or blocked, and there is a policy violation, they get the feedback directly.”
