SONATYPE
Sonatype started 10 years ago, just as the concept of “open source” software development was gaining steam. From their humble beginning as core contributors to Apache Maven, to supporting the world’s largest repository of open source components (Central), to distributing the world’s most popular repository manager (Nexus), Sonatype has played a meaningful role in helping the world embrace the power of open innovation.
Sonatype is laser focused on helping organizations continuously harness all of the good that open source has to offer, without any of the risk. In order to do this, Sonatype has invested in knowing more about the quality of open source than anyone else in the world. This investment takes the form of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and human expertise, which in aggregate produces highly curated intelligence that is infused into every Nexus product. Organizations equipped with Nexus products make better decisions, innovate faster at scale, and rest comfortably knowing that their applications always consist of the highest quality open source components.
Software Development
Designed with Developers in Mind.
Sonatype believes developers should spend their time innovating—not jumping through security hoops, chasing down suspects, and wasting time with falsely reported open source vulnerabilities.
That’s why they designed Nexus to work the way you want to work. Intelligent open source security controls integrated with your preferred tools so you can easily find and fix vulnerabilities—and keep on innovating.

For DevSecOps Leaders
Release applications faster with less risk.
In today’s world, companies capable of delivering innovative software are disrupting established players and gaining share in every industry. To survive and compete effectively, IT leaders are hiring armies of software developers, consuming massive amounts of open source, and embracing DevOps to automate and optimize the entire software development lifecycle.
But what about security? Sonatype believes that DevOps is not an excuse to cut security corners—rather, it is an opportunity to do application security better than ever.
That’s why Sonatype created the Nexus platform—to unite software developers, security professionals, and IT operations on the same team and empower them to continuously identify and remediate open source risk, without slowing down innovation.
