There are a number of reasons for this, including being able      to develop applications faster and with higher quality. And,      hey, its free, right? Last year (2016), there were 79 billion      (with a B) downloads of OSS components!    <\/p>\n<p>      At the same time, most organizations have no idea how much      open source code they are actually using. In fact, the data      says that organizations typically are aware of less than 10%      of the open source software they are using.    <\/p>\n<p>      For enterprises that are developing applications for internal      use, OSS represents a potential security risk there are      software vulnerabilities in many OSS components. Well known      OSS exploits include Heartbleed, Ghost and Shellshock. How      many of those 79 billion downloads had more than 1 software      vulnerability? 1 out of every 16. Thats more than 4.9      billion OSS components.    <\/p>\n<p>      What can you do about this?    <\/p>\n<p>      Read the entire article here, A Field Guide to Open Source      Software Licensing    <\/p>\n<p>      via the fine folks at Flexera Software    <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Read more from the original source:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dabcc.com\/a-field-guide-to-open-source-software-licensing\/\" title=\"A Field Guide to Open Source Software Licensing - DABCC.com\">A Field Guide to Open Source Software Licensing - DABCC.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Industry research shows that 95% of organizations use Open Source Software (OSS) in their mission critical applications. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-open-source-software"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32832"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32832"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32832\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
