The Code Registry and SCANOSS Announce Partnership to Strengthen Open-Source Transparency

New Collaboration Empowers Organisations with Data-Driven Insights to Manage Open Source Risks

The Code Registry, a leading provider of AI-powered code intelligence, has announced a strategic partnership with SCANOSS, a key player in open source software (OSS) intelligence. This collaboration aims to help businesses uncover and address hidden complexities within their codebases, particularly regarding open source usage, licensing compliance, and security vulnerabilities.

By integrating SCANOSS’s extensive Knowledge Base (SCANOSS KB) into The Code Registry’s platform, users gain unprecedented visibility into their OSS components. This enables organisations to identify open source libraries and dependencies, understand relevant licensing obligations, assess risks linked to outdated or insecure components, and take proactive measures to mitigate potential legal and security threats through data-driven strategies.

“At The Code Registry, we believe that knowledge is power. By leveraging SCANOSS’s unparalleled OSS intelligence to complement our full suite of code intelligence, we’re equipping our customers with the deeper insights they need to manage their open source usage confidently and securely,” said Mark Purdy, CEO of The Code Registry. “This partnership underscores our commitment to helping businesses navigate the complex world of third-party software dependencies and risks at every level.”

Helping Business Leaders Make Informed Decisions

Open source software is now a fundamental part of software development, delivering significant benefits but also introducing risks when not properly managed. Many business executives struggle to obtain clear, actionable insights from their technical teams regarding these risks. Through this partnership, The Code Registry and SCANOSS provide a powerful platform that not only identifies risks but also translates complex technical details into clear, business-friendly language.

“We are thrilled to partner with The Code Registry,” said Alan Facey, CEO of SCANOSS. “Our mission has always been to empower organisations with the insights needed to adopt open source safely and securely. By joining forces, we will extend our reach and help even more companies make informed decisions about their OSS strategies.”

“Today, organisations need clarity and speed when it comes to understanding their open source usage,” added Julian Coccia, CTO of SCANOSS. “This collaboration is a game-changer for businesses seeking real-time security and compliance data. We’re excited to see how our combined capabilities will shape the future of software risk management.”

Enhancing Transparency and Cross-Team Collaboration

Beyond providing deeper insights into open source usage, The Code Registry’s AI-driven platform offers a holistic view of overall code health. With over 4,000 rules and data points, the platform delivers intelligence on development team performance, cost-to-replicate valuations, security vulnerabilities, and compliance risks. This comprehensive analysis enables better collaboration between executives, IT teams, and stakeholders, ensuring alignment on key business objectives and strategic goals.
