Open Source Software (“OSS”) is currently pervasive in its use for companies both large and small. Businesses use OSS to develop software rapidly and effectively, whether for their internal systems or for customer-facing products. Although OSS is obtained at no charge, there are significant risks in its usage because if the OSS is not integrated properly into existing systems, it can “infect” proprietary software, and a company is at risk of losing significant ownership value. This program will address the following:

How is OSS licensed?

Risks in use of OSS.

Procedures to use when introducing OSS into a company’s systems.

How to develop an OSS Compliance Policy.

Documenting OSS usage.

OSS due diligence and representations in mergers, acquisitions and transfers of software assets.
