Central Analyzer
==============
Dependency-check includes an analyzer that will check for the Maven GAV
(Group/Artifact/Version) information for artifacts in the scanned area. By
default the information comes from [Maven Central][1]. If the artifact's hash
is found in the configured Nexus repository, its GAV is recorded as an Identifier
and the Group is collected as Vendor evidence, the Artifact is collected as Product
evidence, and the Version is collected as Version evidence.
