Can you produce your CMMC evidence in 48 hours?
Black Duck detects the risk. Siemens Polarion proves it was governed.
and
Alert fatigue is a detection problem. A failed CMMC audit is an evidence problem.
Known open-source vulnerabilities in Black Duck's knowledge base — with 63,000+ exclusive BDSA advisories not found in NVD.
Black Duck BDSA advisories surface critical vulnerabilities on average 100 days ahead of NVD — in ITAR-restricted software, that lead time prevents export control violations. Source: Black Duck BDSA product documentation.
NIST SP 800-171 requirements assessed at CMMC Level 2. Each requires not just implementation but documented, reviewable, defensible evidence.
Manual handoffs required. X-DLM™ routes Black Duck findings into Polarion workflows with ownership, timelines, escalation, and approval — automatically.
Turn every finding into a governed, auditable response record.
- 01
Prioritize real risk in export-controlled software
Black Duck supplies exploit evidence, affected version ranges, CVSS scores, and remediation guidance — with BDSA advisories on average 100 days ahead of NVD. ITAR-relevant component flags surface before they become export violations.
- 02
Govern the full CMMC response chain
Polarion routes every finding through triage → risk acceptance or remediation → legal or program-office sign-off → test verification → release evidence. Every step is timestamped and auditor-ready.
- 03
Prove control on demand — not under pressure
LiveDocs and Polarion workflow history produce the CMMC evidence package continuously. When your Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) asks for Practice RM.002 evidence, it takes minutes — not weeks.
- 04
SBOM as a security artifact, not a delivery obligation
Black Duck generates SPDX and CycloneDX SBOMs from every scan. X-DLM™ synchronizes them into Polarion as living documents — updated with every build, version-controlled, traceable to every vulnerability decision.
See how Siemens Polarion and Black Duck become one governed software risk workflow.
X-DLM™ turns Black Duck software supply chain intelligence into Siemens Polarion work items, requirements links, approvals, escalation paths, and continuously maintained evidence.

Polarion provides the lifecycle system of record for requirements, tests, approvals, traceability, workflow automation, audit evidence, and regulated software delivery.
Black Duck Software Composition Analysis
Black Duck identifies open source and third-party components across source, binaries, containers, firmware, snippets, AI-generated code, and C/C++ environments without package managers.
What X-DLM™ changes for your business
Security runs itself.Your teams focus on product innovation.
Before
Security as a release bottleneck
Manual triage, fragmented tools, late-cycle surprises. Security gates slow delivery and drain engineering bandwidth.
After X-DLM™
Automated vulnerability handling from detection to remediation. Engineers stay focused on building — security runs in parallel, not as a checkpoint.
Before
Security bolted on at the end
Reactive posture. Vulnerabilities discovered late. Costly rework. Customers and auditors see through it.
After X-DLM™
Secure by design from day one. Black Duck SCA monitors every component continuously — source, binaries, firmware, and AI-generated code — before it ships.
Before
Compliance as recurring overhead
Engineers pulled into audit prep. Legal scrambling for evidence. Weeks of work per assessment. Repeatable cost with no revenue return.
After X-DLM™
Evidence generated and timestamped continuously via Polarion LiveDocs. Audit prep drops 31%. What took weeks takes hours — without touching engineering.
Before
Security as a cost story in sales
Enterprise buyers in regulated markets want proof of security maturity. Without it, deals stall, diligence cycles extend, and contracts go to competitors who have it.
After X-DLM™
100% traceable, audit-ready cybersecurity proof — with Siemens and Black Duck behind it. Your sales team closes faster. Your brand commands a premium.
Aerospace and defense companies answer to more than one framework.
CMMC 2.0 is the floor, not the ceiling. DO-178C, NIST SSDF, ITAR/EAR, and IEC 62443 run simultaneously — each with its own evidence requirements, its own audit path, and its own consequence for non-conformity.

Before the C3PAO asks.
X-DLM™ connects Black Duck's vulnerability and SBOM intelligence to Siemens Polarion's governed workflows — so your security team can produce CMMC practice evidence, VDR/VEX records, SBOM artifacts, and ITAR component review trails on demand.
