Understanding, Creating, and Curating SBOMs


Modern applications are more assembled than built, leading to a more complex software supply chain. To satisfy business goals such as faster time to market, developer teams are using third party open source components to deliver applications faster. Approximately 60-80% of an application might be made up of Open Source components!

With so many components in software, comes increased risk as well. Just like in manufacturing where it is required to know where components are sourced from, the same concepts apply in software applications to maintain a software bill of materials (SBOM). Understanding the risk of intricacies of their SBOMs has become indispensable for AppSec teams.

This webinar covers:

We demystify SBOMs, shedding light on their critical role in modern software development and their growing importance in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Whether you're a seasoned developer or new to the AppSec space, you'll discover why SBOMs are not just a compliance checkbox but a vital part of your AppSec toolkit, enhancing transparency, security, and efficiency in your projects.

In this session we go through:

  • An Introduction to SBOMs: Unravel what SBOMs are and the key components they encompass.
  • SBOMs in the SDLC: Delve into how tracking and managing SBOMs throughout the SDLC can significantly mitigate risks, streamline compliance, and bolster your security posture.
  • Practical Guidance on Creating SBOMs: Transition from theory to practice with hands-on demonstrations, empowering you to implement these strategies in your own projects.
  • Enriching SBOMs: Learn how you can enrich your SBOMs to include vulnerability and license information with Snyk’s industry leading database.
