Added Phylum to SCA - Another provider focused on upstream malware detection, going far beyond CVE detection and response workflows
Added Tidelift to Boundary Breakers & SCA - the only platform where you can work with maintainers directly, instead of mindlessly opening GitHub CVE issues never to get fixed

v0.7

Added Pangea to Boundary Breakers
Made the executive decision that if you offer your own scanning focusing on complete coverage of app scanning, then you’re an ASPM. If you purely ingest vulnerabilities from other tools, then you’re a remediation platform. ASPM (broadly) is missing runtime visibility, and Remediation Platforms don’t intend to provide meaningful value from their own scanners.
Added Deepfence to CNAPP
Added Deepfactor to Container Runtime
Added Prowler to CSPM
Added Phoenix Security to Remediation Platforms
Added Armorcode to Remediation Platforms
Small wording changes
Small positioning changes - I’m now comfortable saying that providers are positioned in a general order of how cool I think they are, with a sprinkle of “I want to give more attention to smaller companies.”
