Open source is the foundation of any software-driven business. But legal teams often struggle to track and manage the vast amount of open source that enters their organization through development, procurement, and M&A.
Ensure compliance, avoid litigation, and preserve the value of IP
Black Duck® provides solutions that give teams a complete view of the open source in use internally, or within companies they are looking to acquire, so they can mitigate risks, comply with license obligations, and preserve the value of acquired technology assets.
