SCA & Dependency Analysis
Your code is only as secure as every dependency it relies on — we audit them all.
Why This Matters
Over 80% of modern application code comes from open-source dependencies. Supply chain attacks increased 742% in the last 3 years. If you're not actively managing your dependencies, you're running with known vulnerabilities in production.
Modern applications are built on hundreds — sometimes thousands — of open-source dependencies. Each one is a potential attack vector. A single vulnerable library (Log4Shell, Spring4Shell) can compromise your entire infrastructure. Software Composition Analysis (SCA) identifies these risks before attackers exploit them.
We go beyond automated CVE scanning. We analyze your dependency trees for transitive vulnerabilities, evaluate actual exploitability in your specific usage context, check license compliance, generate Software Bills of Materials (SBOM), and assess your exposure to supply chain attacks like dependency confusion and typosquatting.
Key Focus Areas
CVE & Vulnerability Detection
Comprehensive scanning of all direct and transitive dependencies against NVD, GitHub Advisory Database, and proprietary vulnerability feeds.
Transitive Dependency Analysis
Deep tree analysis to find vulnerabilities in dependencies of dependencies — the hidden risks that direct scanning misses.
Exploitability Assessment
Not every CVE is exploitable in your context. We analyze whether vulnerable functions are actually called in your code.
Supply Chain Security
Detection of dependency confusion, typosquatting, maintainer account compromise, and malicious package injection risks.
SBOM Generation
Software Bill of Materials generation in CycloneDX and SPDX formats for compliance, procurement, and incident response readiness.
License Compliance
Automated license detection and compliance analysis — identifying copyleft, restrictive, and commercially risky licenses in your dependency chain.
How We Work
Dependency Inventory
Complete enumeration of all direct and transitive dependencies across all package managers — npm, pip, Maven, NuGet, Go modules, Cargo, etc.
Vulnerability Scanning
Multi-source vulnerability scanning against NVD, OSV, GitHub Advisories, and proprietary databases with version-level accuracy.
Exploitability Analysis
Code-level analysis to determine whether vulnerable functions in flagged dependencies are actually reachable in your application.
Supply Chain Assessment
Evaluating dependency health — maintainer activity, security practices, publication integrity, and potential compromise indicators.
SBOM & License Audit
Generating machine-readable SBOMs and performing comprehensive license compliance analysis.
Remediation & Policy
Prioritized upgrade paths, alternative package recommendations, and ongoing dependency management policy guidance.
