Hi folks
Is the Dependency Check tool restricted just to open source libraries or does it scan for vulnerabilities in any of the third party libraries that are not open source? If it doesn't support closed source libraries is there any way to make it work with such libraries?

Short answer - yes, for supported technologies OWASP dependency-check will identify vulnerabilities in commercial and FOSS libraries. However, please read about How dependency-check works.
