Fundamentals of Secure Software - Scanning for OSS Vulnerabilities with Software Composition Analysis

The video tutorial discusses Software Composition Analysis (SCA), a process to ensure that software components, libraries, and open-source software used in applications are free from known vulnerabilities and comply with licenses. It explains how SCA fits into the development process, allowing developers to identify and resolve issues before production. Tools like OWASP Dependency Check and J Frog X-ray are highlighted for their roles in scanning and analyzing software for vulnerabilities, using resources like the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) to identify and mitigate risks.
