FOSSA is an open-source compliance tool that helps developers and teams determine which open-source components their code relies on and which licenses these components are released under. This information is essential for ensuring compliance with various open-source licenses and maintaining the Software Bill of Materials. FOSSA integrates with dependency management tools of various tech stacks to identify which open-source components are used in a project. It also highlights any license issues based on the organization’s policies and generates reports of the same. Some key features of FOSSA include its ability to integrate with development workflows, such as the CI, and to perform real-time compliance monitoring. Many of our clients and teams have found FOSSA to be a valuable and effective tool.
