    If you are using a lot of open-source libraries, which is most likely, this is a must-have to ensure no known vulnerabilities slip into production

    Black Duck Software
    • Quick inventory scan: Black Duck helps us scan the code repositories in no time. And quickly list the components and I now really know what is in my code.
    • Security and License risk management: Black Duck being rich in its knowledge base about the vulnerabilities and license issues of open source components, quickly compares the identified inventory to the Black Duck knowledge base and lists all the vulnerabilities and license issues in the code.
    • Integration for automatic scanning: Black Duck is part of devops which provides us automatic scanning. Black Duck is not just for devops but also SecOps.

    • License model based on usage is costly.
    • Documentation is extensive, but often confusing.
    • Black Duck Hub could use some feature improvements for more robust governance capabilities

    Black Duck Software
    Black Duck is an obvious choice, with its versatility, integration, best enterprise support and on top of the list the knowledge base Black Duck has. Vega or Grabber also scans the application and tells about vulnerabilities. But it can never be compared with the feature set of Black Duck. Black Duck can also generate reports.
