We've got special guest Ben Kenyon from North Cyber Security joining this week, and Ben goes into the technical realm of FOSS (Free Open Source Software) to outline the importance of software IP and checking source code for external or 3rd party licences that might have been used to build the software.Developers often use other people's code to help build their own software quicker and while that might be efficient, there has to be a system in place to verify that developers have used code with the appropriate licences.It's not always the first thing developers think about, but if you've used 'free' software for commercial purposes you could find yourself facing some very hefty licence fees.If you are engaged in acquisitions where software is part of the deal, the devil is in the detail. Getting a thorough technical DD and software code audit completed might sound like overkill but in reality it can save you millions.Listen as Ben takes us into the technical realm of FOSSAbout North Cyber SecurityNorth Cyber Security & our team of cyber security consultants specialise in penetration testing and technical due diligence.The team members have in-depth technical knowledge grounded in web development and network infrastructure, experience that helps us understand technology for different situations.
