Google has outlined several plans for future developments:
Users can engage with OSV-Scanner V2 by visiting the OSV-Scanner or OSV-SCALIBR repositories.
Google encourages contributions via these repositories and invites feedback through the OSV discussion list at osv-discuss@google.com.
This initiative marks a significant step towards open collaboration in cybersecurity, making it easier for developers and security teams to identify and manage vulnerabilities efficiently.
As the technology landscape continues to evolve, tools like OSV-Scanner V2 are crucial for maintaining the integrity of software systems and fostering a more secure digital environment.
With its robust features and collaborative development approach, OSV-Scanner is poised to become an essential tool in the fight against cyber threats.
