I wonder how effective this is. The text suggests that the only thing that they look for is that they look for is a version statement of a major component, and then compare it to known vulnerable components. That could be somewhat helpful, but a lot of vulnerabilities won't be detected by that process. Does anyone know if they do more?



I think this kind of service should be heavily skewed to favour false negatives instead of false positives.
