Commercial Licensing Audit Support Services
For companies and other organisations interested in auditing the licensing compliance of open source components, we offer fixed price audit services that are tailored to each company's specific needs. As part of such an audit, we will always, at a minimum,
- Analyse the component's source code and identify all licenses applicable to it.
- Review all the licenses and identify any potential conflicts with them that might prevent distribution of the component in question
- Prepare guidelines for complying with the various licenses applicable to the component
The results of the above audit will be compiled in an Open Source Audit Report, of which you will receive a copy. Read our FAQ to learn more about our testing methodology..
If you are interested in trying out the service to see if it fits your needs, you can request a free audit by contacting us.
