We take your privacy very seriously. Our secure, multi-domain architecture keeps your information safe and encrypted separately from other users. We do not store any passwords on our site.

Key Products and Features 

The Unified Agent

The Unified Agent is a simple Java command-line tool that extracts descriptive information from your open source libraries located on your file system and integrates them with WhiteSource.

The Web-based GUI

The Web-based GUI provides you with numerous options and panels to view and analyze the scans of your open-source software in the organization's products and projects. Administrators can customize the system settings, manage the additional users' permissions, and configure the integration with third-party components.      

WhiteSource Prioritize 

WhiteSource Prioritize represents a revolutionary approach to the assessment of the effective security vulnerability impact associated with open source components. It scans customer code, analyzes how the code interacts with open source components, indicates if reported vulnerabilities are effectively referenced by such code – and if so – identifies where that happens. Through a combination of advanced algorithms, a comprehensive knowledge base and a fresh new UI, WhiteSource Prioritize enables customers to establish whether reported vulnerabilities constitute a real risk, allowing for a significant potential reduction in development efforts and higher development process efficiency.

WhiteSource for Developers

WhiteSource for Developers is a paid bundle that augments the WhiteSource Core offering and includes these products:

• WhiteSource Remediate - Continuously track repositories to identify vulnerable open source components and generate fix pull requests (PR) automatically, thus automating the remediation process

• IDE Integration - Alerts developers on vulnerable open source components while coding within the IDE UI so developers don’t have to switch between applications or wait until they’ve committed the code

• Repo Integration - A native integration detecting all open source components in the repos, providing alerts, enforcing compliance, failing builds and pull requests and automating remediation guidance.

• Browser Integration (previously named Web Advisor or Selection Tool) - A Chrome extension that allows developers to view a snapshot of a component’s details while browsing on web pages such as StackOverflow, Maven Central, GitHub and many more before they download it and incorporate it into the product.
