Protecode has released a free version of its popular hosted open source scanning and license management solution at the inaugural CloudOpen conference, co-located with LinuxCon in San Diego, CA.
ProtecodeCloud Complimentary is Software as a Service (SaaS) code scanning tool that allows organizations to uncover open source and third party content in their code. Because it is a hosted solution, there is no software to install or update. ProtecodeCloud Complimentary is ideally suited to any size organization, especially those that are already developing software in the cloud.
Amanda McPherson, VP - Marketing & Developer Services, The Linux Foundation said, “Linux and open source software components are pervasive in new product development across market segments. With many organizations now developing software for the cloud, it makes sense for them to be able to manage license compliance in the cloud as well.”
Protecode also announced support for the Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) standard, version 1.1 across all of its products.
