What is Mend.io?

Mend.io is an application security platform focused on identifying and fixing vulnerable dependencies in your codebase. It scans your software projects to find outdated libraries, open source components with known security issues, and licence compliance problems. The tool then suggests fixes and can automate remediation by creating pull requests with updated versions. It's designed for development teams who want to reduce the time spent manually tracking and patching security vulnerabilities. Mend.io integrates with popular version control systems and CI/CD pipelines, making it straightforward to embed security checks into your existing workflow without slowing down development.
