The OWASP Foundation has released a new version of its CycloneDX standard for software bills of materials (SBOMs) that is geared to making SBOMs relevant far into the future.
Two key changes seek to boost software supply chain: A machine-readable standard for managing SBOMs with CycloneDX Attestations (CDXAs), and a standard for quantum-level protection.
Steve Springett, chair of CycloneDX SBOM Standard at OWASP, to discusses some of the key takeaways from the major update, including:
✓ Why the new machine-readable formatting (CDXA) is essential given the rise of AI and ML for SBOM automation.
✓ How the new Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) delivers quantum-level security.
✓ How the update delivers on White House EO 04128, with its inclusion of software (SBOM), hardware (HBOM), services (SaaSBOM), and AI/ML models (AI/ML-BOM).
✓ Why OWASP is working with Ecma International to develop a global standard for modern SBOMs.
