SBOMs are now essential: Make them actionable to better manage risk

All kinds of organizations, whether they sell software or only purchase it, can benefit from knowing what their software contains. The number of software supply chain attacks in recent years and the multitude of attack methods cybercriminals are now using to carry them out should be reason enough to make transparency a top priority for securing these supply chains. 

And for organizations that have not yet realized this, the U.S. federal government, the European Union (EU), and several other countries have been busy crafting software supply chain security policies that are in favor of software-producing and software-consuming organizations adhering to these best practices. 

One of these agreed-upon standards is the use of a software bill of materials (SBOM), which can provide transparency into software packages and show all of their components so that the threats that cybercriminals can exploit are exposed. 

Here’s why SBOMs are an essential part of software supply chain security — and how your organization can make them actionable for your software security team.
