The Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) eBook explains how SBOMs enhance software supply chain security by providing visibility into every component used in applications. Highlighting vulnerabilities like Log4Shell and OpenSSL flaws, it shows how SBOMs help organizations detect, track, and remediate risks faster. SBOMs list all dependencies, licenses, and supply chain relationships, enabling transparency and compliance. The guide emphasizes the need for runtime SBOMs, which deliver real-time insights into active and installed software, unlike static build-time tools. With capabilities to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and outdated software, SBOMs help mitigate threats and ensure operational resilience across complex IT environments.
