Is open source licensing still a major challenge for enterprises—or has security become the bigger concern?
In this clip from the 2026 State of Open Source Report webinar, experts from the Eclipse Foundation, Open Source Initiative (OSI), and Perforce OpenLogic discuss how open source adoption challenges have evolved over the past decade. While licensing complexity was once a top concern for organizations, the maturation of the open source ecosystem and the widespread adoption of well-established licenses have helped reduce that burden.
The discussion then shifts to a critical issue facing organizations today: open source security. The panel explores the difference between open source software being secure and the operational challenge of keeping pace with security updates, vulnerability remediation, and patch management. The experts also share perspectives on why ongoing industry investments in open source security may ultimately make open source software more secure than proprietary alternatives.
Key Takeaways:
How open source licensing complexity has evolved
Why license standardization has reduced compliance challenges
Security as a top concern for open source adoption
The challenge of maintaining and applying security patches
Open source software security versus security management
Vulnerability remediation and software maintenance
How the open source community is improving software security
Enterprise open source risk management
Insights from the 2026 State of Open Source Report
Panelists:
