CLOJURE LANGUAGE SUPPORT

Govern Your Clojure Software Supply Chain

Clojure applications move fast from REPL-driven development to production-grade JVM deployments. Sonatype helps teams secure, manage, and gain visibility into Clojure dependencies across every stage of development.

Comprehensive Security for the Clojure Language Ecosystem

The Clojure language is a modern, functional Lisp that runs on JVM and integrates with Java libraries. Clojure projects use build tools like Leiningen and tools.deps to manage dependencies from public repositories like Maven Central.

This flexibility allows teams to leverage the vast Java ecosystem, but also means Clojure projects inherit the same broad dependency surface area. As a result, organizations benefit from clear visibility into open source components, transitive dependencies, licensing, and vulnerabilities within their Clojure build environments. Sonatype helps teams gain control of their Clojure software supply chain by providing visibility, policy enforcement, and governance for dependencies sourced from public repositories.

Supported Features

Dependency Visibility

Gain deep insight into direct and transitive dependencies used in Clojure projects.

Vulnerability Detection

Identify known security vulnerabilities in Clojure and Java libraries before they reach production.

License Compliance

Track and manage open source licenses to reduce legal and operational risk.

Policy Enforcement

Establish automated guardrails to prevent risky or non-compliant components from entering builds.

Repository Management

Control how Clojure packages are stored, proxied, and shared across development teams.

Continuous Monitoring

Receive ongoing intelligence about newly disclosed vulnerabilities affecting your Clojure applications.

Strengthen Clojure Builds Across Your Development Lifecycle

Clojure builds frequently pull dependencies from Maven Central and other public repositories. Whether teams use Leiningen or custom JVM-based build workflows, organizations need consistent governance across environments.

  • Improve Release Confidence

    Ship Clojure projects faster with fewer last-minute security surprises.

  • Reduce Supply Chain Risk

    Minimize exposure to compromised or malicious packages in public repositories.

  • Enhance Developer Productivity

    Provide developers with actionable feedback early, without slowing down innovation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do Clojure projects manage dependencies?

Clojure projects typically use build tools like Leiningen or tools.deps (deps.edn) to define and manage dependencies, which are commonly retrieved from Maven Central.

Does Clojure rely on Java libraries?

Yes. Clojure runs on the JVM, Clojure applications often depend on both native Clojure packages and Java-based libraries.

Why is software supply chain security important for Clojure builds?

Clojure projects frequently include numerous transitive dependencies. Without visibility and governance, vulnerabilities and licensing risks can enter production environments unnoticed.
