What it is
Kusari is a software supply chain security platform that maps components across repositories, images, and pipelines in an evolving knowledge graph called the Trust Fabric. It builds that graph from source and build artifacts and enriches each node. Its Kusari Score weighs technical severity alongside reachability, exploitability, blast radius, effort to fix, ownership, and license. The platform accepts source and build artifacts, CycloneDX and SPDX SBOMs, VEX, and existing scanner output. Inspector reviews pull requests through GitHub, GitLab, or the CLI, returning a merge decision and a fix. Its checks cover vulnerabilities, transitive dependencies, secrets, typosquatted packages, licensing, unmaintained components, code weaknesses, and pipeline or image configuration. Reviews can include up to 2,000 dependency changes, with up to 1,000 high-priority changes examined in depth. Kusari lists integrations including GitHub, Jenkins, Jira, ServiceNow, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. The free plan includes unlimited public repositories and one private repository; Starter Team is $50 a month, with a 30-day free period.
