Today, CISA published the Framing Software Component Transparency, created by the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) Tooling & Implementation Working Group, one of the five SBOM community-driven workstreams facilitated by CISA. CISA’s community-driven working groups publish documents and reports to advance and refine SBOM and ultimately promote adoption. This resource serves as the detailed foundation of SBOM, defining SBOM concepts and related terms and offering an updated baseline of how software components are to be represented. This document serves as a guide on the processes around SBOM creation.
