How SBOM Analysis Enhances Vulnerability Mitigation

Understanding what’s inside your software is crucial for managing risk. 

A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) acts as a detailed inventory, listing all the components that go into a software build. 

By analyzing an SBOM, organizations can identify potential vulnerabilities in open-source or third-party components before they are exploited. This proactive approach to vulnerability management strengthens security, reduces risk, and improves overall software resilience. 

In this RunSafe Security Minute, we explain how SBOM analysis aids in vulnerability identification and mitigation, offering insights into securing software at the source.
