DevGuard vs Kosli

DevGuard is an open-source developer security platform focused on hardening the software supply chain. It monitors deployed software for newly disclosed vulnerabilities and can create issues when new CVEs affect software. Risk scoring and exploit probability analysis help prioritize findings, while VEX assessment sharing supports review of potential false positives. The platform connects with GitHub and GitLab repositories, CI pipelines, and issue trackers, and can ingest SBOM, VEX, and SARIF inputs from compatible tools. Its scanner CLI supports software composition analysis, static application security testing, and signing attestations. A dependency firewall checks npm, Go, PyPI, and container image requests against a malicious package database and blocks known-bad releases. DevGuard also supports SBOM management, artifact signing, provenance attestations, and release policy gates. The source code is distributed under AGPL-3.0-or-later. The free self-hosted Open Source plan is for public projects with an OSI-approved license; non-commercial FLOSS projects can get SaaS free. Business SaaS costs €449.10 per month on a one-year contract paid yearly and includes 10 users, managed hosting in Germany, and support.

Kosli is a change-recording and compliance-monitoring platform for tracking software and business-process changes. It centralizes attestations, software bills of materials, scans, and build metadata, then links that evidence to a real-time production view. Cryptographic provenance and fingerprints create a tamper-evident chain from commit to production. Policy-as-code controls, automated evidence collection, and notifications address deviations, while runtime monitoring can identify artifacts with unknown provenance and provide time-machine forensics for environment changes. Kosli lists integrations including GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, CircleCI, Jenkins, Microsoft Azure, TeamCity, Terraform, Ansible, Datadog, New Relic, Jira, ServiceNow, Slack, and Email. It supports SaaS, single-tenant AWS hosting, and on-premises Enterprise deployment. The platform runs through API, Linux, macOS, self-hosted, web, and Windows. Pricing is available on request.
