Software licenses are an attack surface most CISOs don't think about - until an audit finds unpatched vendor binaries running in production, or a license server becomes a lateral movement vector. OpenLM builds the platform that gives enterprises real-time visibility into what's actually running, where, and under whose credentials. The OpenLM Platform monitors actual software usage across major license managers including FLEXlm, Sentinel, RLM, and others, tracking consumption in real-time to identify idle licenses, enforce compliance with vendor agreements, and cut unnecessary spend.
The tooling maps directly to high-stakes engineering environments: animation and VFX, automotive, oil and gas, MedTech, and other sectors where specialized software stacks carry both heavy licensing costs and meaningful risk exposure. When you're running expensive simulation suites or CAD platforms across global teams, knowing exactly which seats are active - and which are orphaned - isn't just a cost question. It's asset inventory.
Over 1,500 brands worldwide use OpenLM to manage software license allocation across vendors, teams, and geographies. The platform provides the kind of granular usage telemetry that security and IT operations teams need to enforce policy, respond to audits, and maintain an accurate software bill of materials without relying on vendor-reported data.
