Our take
FOSSA (Free Open-Source Software Auditing) provides companies an open-source management platform for identifying open-source components in a company’s source code. This helps companies avoid potentially costly licensing infringements, and steer clear of vulnerabilities.
The developer cybersecurity market is a multi billion industry, and FOSSA has made strong headway into it since being founded in 2015. It has secured Uber, Verizon, and UiPath among its high-profile customer base. This is perhaps because FOSSA’s proposition truly seems win-win: developers receive guidance on the best open-source software, and companies shore themselves up against cyberthreats, non-compliance fines, and litigation.
FOSSA’s investment round success has begun modestly compared with more mature competitor Snyk, or the hefty seed funding of startup Apiiro. Nevertheless, its impressive client roster, combined with a new product release, suggests it is well on track to benefit from an anticipated boom in cybersecurity.
