WhiteSource vs Juniper: What are the differences?
Developers describe WhiteSource as "Find & fix security and compliance issues in open source libraries in real-time". The leading solution for agile open source security and license compliance management, WhiteSource integrates with the DevOps pipeline to detect vulnerable open source libraries in real-time. On the other hand, Juniper is detailed as "High-performance networking & cybersecurity solutions". It provides high-performance networking & cybersecurity solutions to service providers, enterprise companies & public sector organizations.
WhiteSource belongs to "Dependency Monitoring" category of the tech stack, while Juniper can be primarily classified under "Security".
I'm beginning to research the right way to better integrate how we achieve SCA / shift-left / SecureDevOps / secure software supply chain. If you use or have evaluated WhiteSource, Snyk, Sonatype Nexus, SonarQube or similar, I would very much appreciate your perspective on strengths and weaknesses and how you selected your ultimate solution. I want to integrate with GitLab CI.
I'd recommend Snyk since it provides an IDE extension for Developers, SAST, auto PR security fixes, container, IaC and includes open source scanning as well. I like their scoring method as well for better prioritization. I was able to remove most of the containers and cli tools I had in my pipelines since Snyk covers secrets, vulns, security and some code cleaning. SAST has false positives but the scoring helps. Also had to spend time putting some training docs but their engineers helped out with content.
