Protecode was a private company based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada that provided open source license and security management software used for software development license compliance.[1]

It was acquired by Synopsys in November 2015 for undisclosed terms.[2][3]

Products

Protecode Enterprise System is a suite of tools for managing open source software licensing. Protecode utilizes a proprietary database of indexed public open source projects to compare against a software codebase in order to identify open source components and determine license obligations.[4][5][6]

The Protecode product suite produces a software inventory report, cross-referenced to licensing and copyright attributes, to indicate corresponding licensing obligations.[7][8]

In 2013, Protecode announced a single seat open source management scanning tool.[9]

Services

Protecode offers code auditing services to detect all open source and third party and associated licensing obligations before a product release or mergers and acquisitions.[10]

Partnerships

Protecode is a member of IBM Partnerworld and System 4 received validation from IBM Rational Software for IBM Rational Team Concert and IBM Rational ClearCase.[11]

Protecode is available on IBM SmartCloud.[12]

Protecode Library Auditor integrates with Perforce.[13]

Protecode is a member of the Linux Foundation and a contributor to their Open Compliance Program.[14] Protecode is also a supporter of the Linux Foundation sponsored SPDX specification.[15]

Protecode is a member of the Eclipse Foundation[16] and the GENIVI Alliance[17]

Awards

  • In 2009, The Branham Group included Protecode on its list of the Top 25 Canadian IT Up and Comers[19]
