Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is now an indispensable part of modern software development. The world’s largest companies – from Google to Microsoft – and the most complex software applications rely on open source components to drive innovation. FOSS makes it possible to draw on already established solutions and adapt them to your own requirements instead of having to develop everything yourself. This not only supports in-house development, but also speeds up the development process considerably and promotes cost efficiency. At CBTL, we see FOSS as the key to offering powerful and flexible software solutions that meet the high demands of our customers.
Careful selection of FOSS components
Our experts at CBTL select the FOSS components with care and attention. We make sure that the components used fit our projects and the requirements of our customers both technically and in terms of licensing law. Through this careful selection, we ensure that our projects are built on a solid foundation and that no unforeseen legal obligations arise.
Comprehensive documentation and transparency
We attach great importance to comprehensive and detailed documentation of all FOSS components used. This transparency not only creates trust with our customers, but also enables us to have a clear overview of the licenses and software components used at all times. This enables us to respond quickly and precisely to customer inquiries and to create customized reports on the components and licenses used.
Regular audits and safety standards
To ensure the integrity of our software and the security of our projects, we carry out regular reviews of all FOSS components. Both security vulnerabilities and license changes are identified and rectified. This continuous process ensures that our solutions are not only up-to-date, but also reliable in the long term.
Customised reports and licence security
A key part of our work at CBTL is working closely with our customers to meet their specific reporting requirements in relation to FOSS. We create custom reports that break down all components used and the corresponding licenses. In this way, our customers can be sure that they always have an overview of all legal aspects of the software used and are optimally protected.
