Mend.io Connector for Unified AppSec Visibility

Customer Context

A leading data fabric platform, powering secure data exchange and compliance workflows for enterprise customers, partnered with ForshTec to build a production-grade connector for Mend.io (formerly WhiteSource). To support this, they required clean, enriched, and schema-aligned ingestion of open-source software risks from Mend.io into their internal platform.

ForshTec Solution

1. Connector Architecture – Developed a modular, Python-based connector compatible with the customerʼs connector framework.

2. End-to-End Delivery – ForshTec took full ownership — from API analysis and schema mapping to development, testing, and deployment.

3. Schema Mapping – Mapped Checkmarx fields CVE, CWE, scan type, severity, remediation status, file path) to the customerʼs internal vulnerability schema.

4. Schema Normalization – Transformed Mend attributes (CVE ID, severity, license, component, fix status) into the customerʼs unified AppSec schema used by their API layer.

5. Production Ready in 3 Weeks – The connector was delivered, validated, and onboarded with full documentation and reusability support.
