Antepedia Notifier ®
The solution for open source continuous detection!
Antepedia Notifier is the first solution for open source continuous detection. You plug it into your SCM repository (Git, Subversion, or Mercurial) and it checks every source file, resource, and component of your source code, commit after commit.
Every time a developer commits an open source file, Antepedia Notifier will notify you by e-mail or by creating an issue in your JIRA instance.
Antepedia Notifier helps you to:
- Enforce your license compliance rules
- Keep up to date with security vulnerabilities
- Follow every new release of your third-party software
- Improve collaboration between developers, project managers, and the legal department of your organization.
The largest knowledge base of open source projects
Antepedia Notifier is based on the Antepedia Knowledge Base. This knowledge base has over 1,000,000 open source projects and more than 500,000,000 files downloaded from GoogleCode, SourceForge, Maven Central Repository, RubyForge and OW2.
Antelink keeps improving this knowledge base to offer you a better service.
Why detecting open source components?
Nowadays the use of open source dependencies is pervasive in the construction of new software system. Yet, open source licensing introduces risks that can lead to serious consequences if not handled early enough.
Secure and Safe
You don't have to worry about your files being uploaded to a server, or your data being transferred into a third party. Instead, Antepedia Notifier calculates a file fingerprint (SHA-1 hash) that is sent to our servers. This fingerprint characterizes your files without exposing their content. It's impossible to reverse engineer your file from this fingerprint.
The communication between your local installation of Antepedia Notifier and our servers proceeds through a secured link. Antepedia Notifier transfers each bit using a secure HTTPS communication protocol. No third party can intercept your data.

How the notification works?
Antepedia Notifierworks as follows. Each time a developer commits a file, Antepedia Notifier:
- Calculates a file fingerprint for each file committed into your SCM.
- Queries the Antepedia knowledge base.
- Sends you an e-mail or publishes a JIRA issue containing valuable information about the open source files detected.
