Ask HN: Open-source SBOM generation tools?

7 points·riyakhanna1983··4 comments

One of the compliance requirements of the recent Cybersecurity EO order is to track software bill of materials (SBOM). Curious to know what open-source tools exist to generate SBOM and how accurate they are.

Currently the best one I know of is https://github.com/anchore/syft. It finds most dependencies even within built artifacts.

You can also check out the comments in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32104805 - the release announcement of Salus (Microsoft)

We weren't happy with what was already out there, so we built our own -- https://github.com/mattermost/gobom

We use this - https://dependencytrack.org/
