Ensure scanners are in place for open-source vulnerabilities in used packages

AltaNivel 1Revisión manualsupply-chain

Descripción

Detect, prevent and monitor known open-source vulnerabilities in packages that are being used. Open-source vulnerabilities might exist before one starts to use a package, but they are also discovered over time. New attacks and vulnerabilities are announced every now and then. It is important to keep track of these and to monitor whether the dependencies used are affected by the recent vulnerability. Detecting and fixing those packages’ vulnerabilities decreases the attack surface within deployed and running applications that use such packages. It prevents security flaws from reaching the production environment that could eventually lead to a security breach.
