If you or someone on your team decides to use open source software (which has many pros: zero cost, usually minimal coding errors, sometimes free updates), there is one aspect about which you might forget: the security of that open source software.
When you are not using organic software, you are exposing your system(s) to vulnerabilities that can be found by anyone else downloading that same open source software.
As part of your cost savings, make sure to budget for periodic queries about newly discovered security weaknesses in any open source software you’re using.
As always, Eckrich Enterprises stands ready to assist you with organic code, using open source software, and/or evaluating your system security.
