Rising Enterprise Adoption of Open Source Software is Putting Businesses At Greater Risk

New data from Fortify Software finds that widely-used open source software packages do not employ best practices for securing code

(PresseBox) (London, UK, )
Fortify Software Inc., the market leader in enterprise application security solutions for business software assurance, released today its Open Source Security Study which reveals that the most widely-used open source software packages for the enterprise are exposing users to significant and unnecessary business risk. The study validates that Open Source Software (OSS) development communities have yet to adopt a secure development process and often leave dangerous vulnerabilities unaddressed. Additionally, the study found that nearly all OSS communities fail to provide users access to security expertise to help remediate these vulnerabilities and security risks.
