About the client
A European luxury goods holding company bringing together over 20 brands that produce and sell products ranging from jewelry to clothing, leather goods, and accessories.
The challenge
Across its multiple luxury brands, the company has a large number of Java programs installed. However, the customer didn’t realize that the change Oracle made to its Java policies in 2019 impacted both the security of these programs and its license compliance.
The solution
SoftwareOne reviewed the Oracle contracts to determine if the conglomerate had Java licenses or had purchased Oracle product licenses with restricted usage rights for Java. This was followed by analyzing tool output provided by the customer to detect Java installations. Interviews were conducted to ensure a clear view of the installed products’ purpose and to identify all compliance risks.
An in-depth review of the installed version was checked against a known vulnerability database to determine potential security risks. The SoftwareOne team detected a large number of installations at the highest risk level.
All the above was completed within one month and provided the customer with valuable insights. The CIO formed a team to mitigate the existing risks and avoid costly consequences. SoftwareOne’s input also provided the company with the feedback needed for defining a new Java strategy.
The result
- SoftwareOne analysis and investigations provided the conglomerate a clear view of its Java products’ status.
- SoftwareOne explained all compliance and security risks in a detailed report.
- The company is now aware of the risks it is facing and has initiated actions to eliminate or mitigate exposure.
- SoftwareOne’s input can support the company in defining a new Java strategy based on factual information.
