What You’ll Learn
A Software Bill of Materials can be used to support the systematic review of known security vulnerabilities in open source components and approval of each component’s license terms to clarify the obligations and restrictions as it applies to the distribution of the analyzed software, thus reducing risk. This course will help you understand what the minimum data elements are for a SBOM and the reasoning behind why those elements are included. It will also provide guidance on where to find tools that will let you generate and validate SBOMs.
