What Insignary Clarity is
Insignary Clarity is a software composition analysis solution for finding security and license risks in third-party software. It creates a Software Bill of Materials from source code or compiled binaries, using binary analysis to match code fingerprints with open-source repositories. Scanning can cover applications, embedded firmware, IT infrastructure and containers without source code. Clarity imports custom SBOMs and standardized SPDX or CycloneDX files. When vulnerability information is available, Binary SCA reports whether vulnerable code is present in a binary. Stored SBOMs can be monitored for newly disclosed vulnerabilities and patent litigation risks without another scan. Deployment options include SaaS, on-premises and hybrid models, with self-hosted and web platforms listed. On-Demand projects provide two weeks of access for one user and one project, including SBOM generation plus security and license alerts; this option is currently available only in North America. Prices start at $200, paid once for a 100MB project. Insignary was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Toronto, Canada.
