Regulatory Compliance
Challenges with regulatory compliance
Without the ability to flag policy violations, notify stakeholders, approve exceptions, and create an audit trail, you have little insight into your current compliance stance, or the ability to prove it to customers and regulators.
ActiveState’s policy management is the key to ensuring all stakeholders adhere to internal and external guidelines during the software creation process, rather than the much more expensive process of conforming after release.
Ensuring license compliance with commercial requirements and regulatory guidelines means not only being able to identify all the licenses associated with third-party components, but also that you’re working with a complete catalog of dependencies to start with.
ActiveState eliminates phantom dependencies and identifies packages with buried or multiple licenses, dramatically reducing the threat of litigation and fines.
Provenance attestations help independently validate the security, integrity, and trustworthiness of your application. But you also need to prove that all the third-party components from which it’s built have been sourced and built securely.
Because ActiveState builds dependencies from vetted source code, our attestations allow you to prove the security and integrity of all third-party components, bolstering compliance efforts.
Software Bills of Material (SBOMs) can help create a complete catalog of third-party dependencies. But when generated via reverse engineering using a binary scanner, the result can fail to identify all dependencies exposing the organization to non-compliance risks.
The ActiveState difference
ActiveState’s SLSA3-compliant platform helps you stay current and compliant with industry regulations by generating a complete dependency tree for each built artifact. Plus, complete licensing and vulnerability information for each dependency helps you comply with IT and security guidelines.
Provenance attestations for each open source component keep you up to date with SSDF and CISA attestation requirements.
Runtime environment SBOMs help healthcare businesses meet key FDA requirements, while our forensic audit trail of all changes supports SOC2 compliance requirements. And all of it reinforced through built-in policy management.
