Automated Dependency Discovery & Supported Package Managers
During code scan of your applications, Highlight automatically detects application dependencies to aggregate this data into CAST Highlight’s Software Composition dashboards. Find below the list of the dependency management tools we support so far.
Dependency discovery through dependency files and package managers
