Software Composition Analysis (SCA) is an application security subfield pertaining to security, license compliance, and code quality. SCA services typically focus on the identification of third-party library dependencies. However, they also provide auxiliary services for viewing software inventories, enforcing organization-wide policies, and integrating with setups.
Modern software utilizes a multitude of third-party libraries and frameworks that can become dependencies. Consequently, any known vulnerabilities in these dependencies present potentially critical security risks for your business. As a result, Software Composition Analysis tools, have received widespread adoption in the security space in order to keep track of vulnerable dependencies.
Open-source software (OSS) libraries are one such example of a widely used third-party library in the software industry. It's estimated that as much as 80 to 90% of the software products on the market contain some OSS element. Each of these products contains on average, 100 distinct open-source elements, whose code accounts for up to 35% of the overall application size. OSS vulnerabilities can be directly attributed to the vast majority of data breaches over the past 5 years. The recent log4j vulnerabilities are another prime example of the risks posed by poorly secured third-party libraries.
