ActiveState provides the world's largest library of secure open source: 79 million (Java, Javascript, Python, R, Go, etc.) vetted components across all major language ecosystems, including transitive dependencies and OS-level libraries—built from source to ensure every component is verified, vulnerability-free, and continuously updated. Software teams improve security posture while accelerating development velocity. We deliver five critical outcomes.
Counter Supply Chain Risks at Their Source
Significantly reduce the possibility of inheriting malicious code from pre-built binaries. Replace risky, unvetted public components with secure, verifiable packages built directly from source. Gain provenance over your artifacts, ensuring bad actors and malware never reach your environment.
- Protection from compromised package ecosystems and build systems
- Mitigate high-profile malware attacks such as the npm Shai-Hulud attack and other future threats
Continuous Remediation for Your Open Source Inventory
Shift from reactive patching to proactive immunity. Maintain a hardened security posture with safe-by-default open source and continuous remediation across your inventory. ActiveState artifacts reduce your attack surface and evolve to help close vulnerabilities before they become incidents.
- Up to 99% reduction in CVEs compared to community open source artifacts
- Achieve up to 90% reduction in MTTR for future vulnerabilities
Apply Frictionless Security Policies
Embed governance directly into developer workflows without impeding engineering or adding costly CI/CD bloat. ActiveState solutions slot seamlessly into existing tools and AI coding assistants, transforming security policy from a blocker into an enabler that reduces open source approval workflows from weeks and days to just hours and minutes.
- Reduce open source approval workflows from weeks and days to hours and minutes
Audit Ready Compliance, Always
Achieve continuous compliance with instant, granular visibility into components, licenses, and dependencies across your organization. ActiveState delivers comprehensive SBOMs and metadata by default, ensuring you can meet complex standards and minimizing the scramble of audit preparation.
- Full visibility into your open source usage, including transitive and OS level dependencies
Reclaim Developer Velocity and Focus
Minimize high-value engineering hours on dependency conflicts, environment setup, research and remediation. ActiveState components and artifacts are fully managed to ensure they are always up to date and safe to use so your team can focus entirely on shipping revenue-generating features.
- Free up 4-8 developer hours per CVE
- 68% reduction in scanner noise from false positives
