Due Diligence Déjà Vu: License Compliance in Software M&A
from Sushi Bytes · host FossID
Startups are moving fast – fueled by AI-generated code, experimental “vibe coding,” and a breakneck pace of shipping software. But when those startups become acquisition targets, things can get messy. In this episode, Shinobi goes solo (with Gen temporarily sidelined by a network outage) to unpack how this new wave of coding introduces license risk that traditional SBOMs miss. Learn why SCA-powered software audits are essential for surfacing modified open source fragments, how blind audits protect confidentiality, and why acquirers need more than metadata to see what’s really lurking in a target’s repo.
