Secure Builds Start with Sonatype’s Software Developer Tools
Code Quality and Component Insights
Enable developers to discover risks early and fix them before they reach production, reducing developer waste such as rework and breaking builds. With software development solutions that offer detailed insights, your team can make healthier component choices early in development, directly in your IDE and source control.
Dependency Management
Automated dependency management that waives low-risk violations, improving software developer productivity. Sonatype’s software development tools include automated golden pull requests, helping ensure builds don’t break or reduce code quality. Take control of your dependencies with stage-specific guardrails in your SDLC that automate compliance and avoid delays from unnecessary security “checkpoints.”
Developer-Friendly Risk Remediation
Sonatype’s software development tools offer research-based vulnerability descriptions written for developers, by developers with actionable remediation guidance to mitigate risk quickly. With smart recommendations that automatically avoid breaking changes, policy violations, and transitive dependency vulnerabilities, you can improve your Mean Time to Remediate (MTTR).
Continuous Vulnerability Monitoring
Receive alerts for new vulnerabilities based on component, risk level, and applications affected. Data is compiled from automation and careful human curation with the highest quality insights so you can confidently act quickly — with fewer false positives and negatives. Improve software developer productivity while mitigating your risk.
