Understanding SBOM:
A Cornerstone of Modern
Software Security

In the complex and ever-evolving landscape of software development, ensuring the security, transparency, and compliance of software components is paramount.
A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is a critical tool that provides a comprehensive inventory of all software components, libraries, and dependencies within an application. Just like a traditional bill of materials in manufacturing, an SBOM lists every part required to build a software product, enabling developers and security teams to understand precisely what is in their software.

Why SBOM Matters

Enhanced Security

SBOMs allow organizations to quickly identify and manage vulnerabilities within their software supply chain. By cataloging every component, including version details and known vulnerabilities, SBOMs enable proactive security management, ensuring that vulnerabilities are addressed before they can be exploited.

Transparency and Trust

With SBOMs, organizations can provide transparency about the components in their software, building trust with customers, stakeholders, and regulators. This transparency is increasingly becoming a requirement in many industries as part of compliance and regulatory standards.

Compliance and Risk Management

SBOMs simplify the process of meeting industry standards and compliance requirements by providing a clear, auditable record of all software components. They also help in assessing and mitigating risks associated with third-party components and dependencies.

Technical Features

SBOM

Generates a comprehensive SBOM with details on OS and App artifacts.

Dependencies

Analyzes all dependencies to ensure all supporting tools are up to date and secure.

License Types

Analyzes the dependencies, and license types to avoid issues such as copyleft license types.

Secrets

Scans secrets in your artifacts that can be exploited like tokens, passwords, etc...

Signed Attestations

Analyzes signed attestations to verify code progent and authenticity.

SBOM Formats

Output your SBOMs in CycloneDX (JSON/XML), text, or SPDX (JSON/XML)
