New NG-Bridge Digest Data to Complement Compliance Library

Starting with the 6.14.2 SP1 release, Code Insight will support a secondary data source, NG-bridge, for digest matches as an overlay to the data in the Compliance Library. NG-bridge is Code Insight’s next generation bridge solution that complements the Compliance Library (CL) with digest-match data beyond that provided in CL 2.43. The NG-bridge component is included with Code Insight and is a separate module that runs along-side the product to support exact-matching functionality.

Updates to the NG-bridge data source are planned on a regular basis and will keep the MD5 data for exact-file matching up to date. Each NG-bridge data update release is incremental, providing only changes since the last update release.

For more information about the NG-bridge data updates, how to configure the updates, and how the NG-bridge data is processed during scans, see “Managing NG-Bridge Updates for Code Insight” in the Code Insight Installation & Administration Guide.
