Ensure License Compliance
Open source components help your development teams deliver better software faster. That’s the fact. But are there hidden license obligations that can leave your organization exposed? To eliminate this risk, you need visibility into how components are licensed. And not just the licenses for the components you included, but the entire dependency tree.
How to Avoid License Risk
With a proprietary license database, Sonatype Insight goes beyond a project’s reported license to provide you with accurate, actionable license information. You’ll avoid license risk without disrupting your development process.
Sonatype Insight gives you the information you need when and where you need it:

"As we were building the license databases for Insight, we found that it can sometimes be difficult to accurately determine an open source component’s license. Some projects have not provided licensing information to the Central Repository, which required a bit of detective work on our part. We also found some projects that declare themselves to be under one type of open source license when in fact they contain components licensed under other, incompatible, license types."Larry Roshfeld
