Palamida announced that it has extended the reach of its extensive compliance library and launched a new service, the Vulnerability Reporting Solution (VRS). VRS works seamlessly with Palamida's code audit compliance solution, IP Amplifier, to identify, prioritize, and report known vulnerabilities within open source code used in customers' projects.

Existing vulnerability analysis solutions scan customers' proprietary code to identify potential vulnerability holes due to coding practices such as buffer overflow and similar problems. The VRS complements these tools to further enhance the IT Governance process by both pinpointing the use of open source content and reporting on known vulnerabilities based on aggregated information from many sources.
