Your Biggest Developer Isn't on Payroll

Open source writes more code for you than your entire engineering team. Modern software is built on open source. A lot of it.

Lineaje's research shows

Open-source software is used in 90% of modern applications.

In fact, open source contributes two to nine times the code your developers write. That means your largest "developer" isn't on your payroll, in your standups, or in your Slack channels. It's a global community of thousands—often anonymous—contributing code your applications rely on every day.

Open source is the software supply chain.

Why it matters

• 95% of application vulnerabilities originate in open-source dependencies.
• Open-source dependency chains can extend 20–60 layers deep.
• 7.68% of open-source components are of unknown or dubious origin.
• 67.6% of open-source components are not well maintained.

You can't secure what you can't see.
