A Mend Case Study
IGT, a global gaming giant, needed to keep its applications secure while rapidly deploying software that increasingly relied on open source components. The development and security teams were inundated with vulnerability alerts—many irrelevant to their products—making it hard to prioritize fixes without wasting time and risking client confidence.
By adopting WhiteSource Prioritize’s Effective Usage Analysis, IGT can automatically determine whether vulnerable open source functionality is actually used in their code, filtering out over 70% of alerts. The result: remediation effort cut nearly in half, clearer priorities for developers via an intuitive dashboard, and stronger trust in security tooling while focusing resources on the issues that matter most.
