Google has recently announced the GA launch of their free Assured Open Source Software service and it’s good news for software developers everywhere. This new service was unveiled at Google’s Cloud Next ’19 conference and is designed to help businesses and developers ensure they are using legitimate, secure open source software.
The Assured Open Source Software service combines automated checks of the software code with manual reviews of the license and security of the code. It will enable developers to verify the integrity of their code and to ensure that no malicious code has been added without them knowing about it. This service also provides technical support to help developers adopt and use open source software.
The service features an add-on to Google’s Security Source program which helps developers detect open source software vulnerabilities, as well as an advisory on finding and using open source software. It will also feature a compatibility checker for making sure that software runs correctly on different platforms. This service is expected to be beneficial for those engaged in cloud technology.
The importance of using such a service cannot be underestimated. It helps businesses and developers protect their data and intellectual property from possible breaches and exploits by malicious coders. It can also help businesses to save time and money as they can make sure they are using the best and most secure open source software available.
Google’s new Assured Open Source Software service will open up many new opportunities for developers and businesses alike. It is a great way to ensure that open source software is secure and can be used with minimal risk. As long as developers use Google’s service to verify the integrity of their code, they can rest assured their data is safe and sound.
