About fossa

FOSSA is a dependency analysis tool that scans software projects for license and vulnerability information. A project’s dependencies are the libraries and other components it relies on; reviewing them helps teams understand what is included in the software they build. License scanning identifies the licenses associated with those components, while vulnerability scanning looks for known security weaknesses. The product is described as language-agnostic, so its analysis is not limited to one programming language, and it integrates with more than 20 build systems. That combination makes it applicable to projects that use different languages and build workflows. The available product information does not identify the precise vulnerability sources, license rules, supported build systems, reporting format, or remediation features, so those details should be checked for a particular setup.
