TrustSource Business Case

Based on the experience of several years, we collected data to determine the average savings value a TrustSource Setup may provide. Please find below an overview of the three main categories where we currently are able to calculate benefits.

• Operational Savings:
  TrustSource is a hosted service. This frees you from efforts to run updates, backups and other expenses such as CPU-power or server capacity.
• Legal & documentation work:
  TrustSource comes with a legal engine retrieving obligations from known licenses as well as the ability to prepare legal documentation in an automated manor. This saves on legal experts as well as on developer time.
• Component Update verification & followup
  In general, no code should enter your services without having been verified. TrustSource takes a lot of this work by evaluating the new versions and collecting the information required for the legal documentation as well as simple security checks, e.g. known vulnerabilities, and alerts users on known / matching issues.

Besides these aspects there are even more benefits. The transparency is of such a high value. With TrustSource the answer to the question: “Which projects are impacted by log4j v2.15.0?” is just one click away. Or the search for the next component version, that is not vulnerable anymore can be retrieved directly through the bump hint. All these sort of savings do not yet have enough data to build reliable calculations.
