# Solution Showcase: Security, Licensing, and the CRA for C/C++

> Join FOSSA's solution showcase on C/C++ security, licensing, and CRA readiness — including snippet detection, vendored components, Conan packages, and binary scanning.

C and C++ power much of the world's embedded systems, devices, and critical infrastructure. They are also among the hardest languages to secure and govern. Without a universal package manager, C/C++ codebases are full of copied snippets, vendored libraries, and prebuilt binaries that traditional SCA tools struggle to detect, let alone enable the appropriate security and compliance workflows.

Join us for our solution showcase for additional context on the nuances of the C/C++ ecosystems, plus a detailed walkthrough of FOSSA's expanded C/C++ support. We'll cover:

- Snippet detection to identify open source code copied into your codebase
- Vendored component detection to find libraries embedded directly in your source tree
- Conan package detection for package-managed dependencies
- Binary scanning to uncover components in compiled artifacts

You'll leave with a clear picture of how to get complete visibility into your C/C++ supply chain and build a foundation for license compliance, security, and regulatory compliance (including the CRA) readiness.
