It gives engineering and security teams full software supply chain visibility, prioritises exploitable vulnerabilities over raw vulnerability counts, and automates remediation to reduce mean time to remediate. Mend.io covers three areas: application security (static application security testing, software composition analysis, container and dynamic testing), AI security (AI bill of materials inventory, model governance, red teaming, runtime guardrails), and automated dependency management through the Renovate family of tools. Formerly known as WhiteSource; rebranded to Mend.io in 2022. ## Platform - [Mend AppSec](https://www.mend.io/mend-platform/): Application security platform combining static application security testing and software composition analysis with AI-powered remediation. -
