Frequently Asked Questions

Why is GitLab security not enough?

Good enough is not enough. Sonatype augments GitLab with best-in-class vulnerability data and securing findings. By using both solutions, developers can save time spent fixing security issues.

How can GitLab and Sonatype users maximize the investments they have already made in DevOps tools?

Users can maximize the investments they have already made by leveraging best-of-breed technologies for application security and repository managers.
