Sonatype receives highest scores in both current offering and strategy categories among top SCA software vendors
Fulton, Md., Nov. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sonatype®, the end-to-end software supply chain security platform, is pleased to announce that it has been named a Leader in The Forrester WaveTM: Software Composition Analysis Software, Q4 2024 report. Forrester identified, researched and evaluated 10 top SCA software providers and Sonatype received the highest possible marks in criteria including malicious package detection, SBOM generation, export and sharing, SBOM ingestion and analysis, policy management, and AI component analysis, along with seven others.
“Sonatype is a trailblazer for detection of inner-source and associated transitive dependencies to efficiently manage internal shared components,” according to the Forrester report. “Sonatype’s vision of blocking software supply chain attacks at the network firewall and endpoint protection systems is revolutionary…Sonatype is an excellent choice for enterprises looking to manage dependency, license, operational, and malicious package risk across the portfolio.”
Sonatype has redefined Software Composition Analysis (SCA) by combining enterprise-grade SCA tools with Nexus Repository, open source malware protection, automated dependency management and SBOM management to provide the industry’s only end-to-end software supply chain management platform. Its 2024 State of the Software Supply Chain® Report, found that 80% of application dependencies remain un-upgraded for over a year. Sonatype offers enterprises a better way to SCA, with automated policy enforcement and fixes at each software development lifecycle (SDLC) stage for vulnerability, license, and open-source health conditions.
“With the scale of open source and AI accelerating software development, managing dependencies and risk becomes exponentially more difficult. This is why Sonatype’s approach to SCA with automated dependency management is so powerful, helping enterprises speed up software development while managing risks effectively,” said Mitchell Johnson, Chief Product Development Officer at Sonatype. “We believe our continued innovation has led to this recognition. We are delighted to be named a Leader in SCA software by Forrester, which to us recognizes our vision and unwavering commitment to helping customers secure their software supply chains.”
The report also recognized Sonatype with the highest possible scores in the vision and roadmap criteria, noting “The stellar roadmap includes SBOM sharing, regulation-specific templates, SBOM and supplier quality scoring, AI/ML supply chain coverage, and AI BOM management.”
