Why teams choose dpndncY

Most SCA tools were built for the cloud era. dpndncY was built for teams that need depth, control, and the ability to run everything on their own infrastructure.

What makes dpndncY different
🔒

Fully self-hosted

Your source code, dependency data, and scan results never leave your environment. No SaaS dependency, no data residency concerns, no per-seat cloud fees.

🧠

Deeper intelligence

Attack Path analysis, EPSS-based exploitability forecasting, AI context profiling, upgrade risk delta, and Hidden Dependency Risk scoring — not just a CVE list.

SCA + SAST in one

Native SAST with 300+ rules across 9 languages, taint tracking, and code-level findings — correlated with supply chain risk in a single workflow, not two separate tools.

🔗

Open vulnerability sources

Data from OSV, NVD, GHSA, and CISA KEV — all public, all auditable. No proprietary black-box vulnerability database you have to trust blindly.

🛠

Enterprise deployment, zero friction

Docker Compose, Kubernetes/Helm, or a Windows installer. Deploy on your own infrastructure in minutes — no developer toolchain required, no scan agents, no complex pipelines.

📋

Policy enforcement built in

PASS/FAIL verdicts with configurable thresholds, blocked rules, and delta-only enforcement. Integrate directly into your CI/CD gate — no external policy service needed.
