## What is Labrador SCA?

Labrador SCA (Software Composition Analysis) is a tool developed by Labrador Labs that automates the detection of open source software (OSS) vulnerabilities and license risks across source code, binaries, and container software.

Analysis Targets:
- Source code
- Binary files
- Container software

How It Works:
- Step 1 (Input): Software is submitted via cloud or on-premise services through source code, ZIP file, or CLI for scanning by the Labrador Scanner.
- Step 2 (Detect): The Labrador Engine extracts component information to generate an accurate SBOM. Using patented CENTRIS and VUDDY technologies, vulnerabilities and license violations are detected with up to 93% accuracy.
- Step 3 (Correct): Vulnerabilities and license issues are addressed through an Organization Policy Management system, supporting patch backporting and license management.

Key Capabilities:
- 3-layer analysis at component, file, and function levels using patented VUDDY technology
- Zero-day vulnerability detection via patented XVDB technology
- AI-assisted verification for vulnerability and license detection
- Labrador Patch Priority (LPP) system for severity-based patch prioritization and pinpoint patch backporting
- SBOM generation in SPDX and CycloneDX international standard formats
- Organization-level customizable vulnerability management policies
- Open source governance and license compliance management with automated policy document generation
- Supports 150+ programming languages, 10+ package managers, and 10+ CI/CD tools
- Available as SaaS or on-premise (including a dedicated Labrador Appliance hardware device)
- Analysis input methods include CLI, repository URL, and ZIP upload
- Integration with SDLC and CI/CD pipelines
