Binary Scanning 101: Pulling back the covers on binaries - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Organizations across every industry increasingly rely on open source software to form the foundation of the products and technologies they deliver to the market. So you can assume that the third-party commercial software you depend on from supply chain partners and outsourcers also uses open source as its backbone. The challenge is deciding whether to trust that your vendors are managing potential open source security vulnerabilities proactively or to verify for yourself that the open source embedded in the software you procure remains up to date and secure. The latter, what we refer to as “trust but verify,” requires tools that can look inside compiled binaries to ensure the whole of your application is secure. Join Lisa Bryngelson, senior product manager at Synopsys, as she pulls back the covers on how Black Duck tackles binary scanning. In this webinar, she’ll discuss: · Binary scanning basics and best practices · How binary scanning works · The different types of binary scanning and identification techniques · The challenges in detecting specific components or versions · How developers can make it easier for scanners to produce accurate and precise results
