Case Study: Kärcher achieves automated software security and compliance with Mend

Kärcher Deploys Mend to Safeguard Software and Assure Global Quality and Compliance

Kärcher, a global manufacturer with around 50 software products in development at a time, needed a faster way to handle the growing number of security vulnerabilities and dependencies across its software supply chain. Managing scans and fixes manually was becoming a full-time job, so the company turned to Mend to help secure its software development lifecycle and support SBOM creation.

Mend implemented automated detection and remediation of vulnerabilities and threats across Kärcher’s diverse applications and dependencies, helping streamline security scanning and compliance work. As a result, Kärcher saved developer time, improved software supply chain security, and gained a more efficient process for tracking components and enforcing stronger DevOps policies.
