Open source libraries form the backbone of modern software – but they can also introduce serious vulnerabilities if left unchecked. High-profile incidents like the Log4j “Log4Shell” fiasco proved that a single flawed dependency can put countless organizations at risk. In fact, a 2024 report found that 84% of codebases contained at least one known open source vulnerability, and 74% had high-risk vulnerabilities – up sharply from the previous year.

Are you confident that your application security testing (AST) efforts are truly protecting your business, or are they just ticking boxes for compliance? These days, simply meeting regulatory requirements isn’t enough. Security teams face mounting pressure from alert overload, fragmented tools, and an ever-growing backlog of vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, executives demand clear evidence that security investments are driving real business value. So how can security leaders bridge this gap?
