Secureroot's software composition analysis (SCA) services help SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and enterprise dev teams audit open-source dependencies, generate SBOMs, identify known CVEs in third-party libraries, and manage license compliance risk. Coverage across npm, PyPI, Maven, NuGet, RubyGems, and more. ISO 27001 certified. SOC 2 audit-ready.
Software Composition Analysis (SCA) is the systematic identification and security audit of every open-source library, framework, and component used in your software — including the dependencies of your dependencies (transitive dependencies). The output is a complete Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) – like a list of ingredients for your application – plus a vulnerability assessment of every component, license compliance audit, and prioritized remediation plan.
Modern software is 70-90% open-source code. A typical web application uses 200-500 direct dependencies plus thousands of transitive dependencies you never explicitly chose. Each one is a potential security risk – from accidental vulnerabilities (Log4Shell, OpenSSL CVEs) to deliberate supply chain attacks (event-stream npm package, ua-parser-js, recent xz utils backdoor). SCA gives you visibility and control: what’s in your software, what’s vulnerable, what’s licensed how, and what to fix first.
SBOM and SCA have moved from nice-to-have to regulatory mandate. SOC 2 Type II requires evidence of dependency vulnerability management. ISO 27001:2022 Annex A.5.21 explicitly requires supply chain security. NIST SSDF requires SBOMs. The US Executive Order 14028 requires SBOMs for federal software. DPDP Act mandates demonstrable security testing. Enterprise customers demand SBOMs before signing contracts. Without SCA, you’re flying blind on the 70-90% of your code you didn’t write – and auditors, customers, and attackers all know it.
We follow NIST SSDF, CycloneDX SBOM standard, SPDX standard, and OWASP Dependency-Check methodology. Every SCA engagement runs through these six steps – from inventory to remediation.
We catalog every dependency across all repositories in scope – package manager manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, pom.xml, build.gradle, Gemfile, go.mod, Cargo.toml, composer.json) plus transitive dependencies.
We generate a complete Software Bill of Materials in standard formats (CycloneDX, SPDX) covering every direct and transitive dependency, version, source repository, and license – your audit-ready inventory.
Industry SCA tools (Snyk, Black Duck, Mend, Sonatype Nexus IQ, OWASP Dependency-Check, npm audit, Trivy) cross-reference your SBOM against NVD, GitHub Security Advisories, and ecosystem-specific vulnerability databases.
Senior consultants validate findings – eliminating false positives, assessing actual exploitability in your code (is the vulnerable function actually called?), and prioritizing by EPSS, business impact, and reachability.
Every finding documented with affected packages, CVE details, exploitability assessment, license analysis, CVSS scoring, and remediation guidance (upgrade path, alternative library, or compensating control).
Once your team patches the findings, we verify the fixes at no extra cost. Engagement only closes when everything’s actually fixed.
