Critical Risk Factors That Can Derail Your Deal
Without an audit and plan to address open source issues, financial events can be delayed or devalued. FOSSA helps you identify and mitigate these critical risks:
IP Risk
Non-compliant licenses can lead to copyright infringement claims, forcing code rewrites or expensive settlements that impact valuation.
Indemnification Risk
Customer agreements often require indemnification against IP claims, creating significant financial exposure during due diligence.
Security Risk
Vulnerable open source components can expose your organization to data breaches and compliance violations that threaten deals.
