Validate and Monitor Third-Party SBOMs

Vendor Transparency

Collect and validate SBOMs from vendors, check quality and completeness, and see how third-party components affect your applications and policies.

Third-Party Software Risk

Buyers need more than questionnaires. Without SBOMs and clear policies from suppliers, security reviews stall and blind spots remain. At the same time, regulations increasingly require organizations to take more responsibility for supplier risk.

Common Challenges

  • Limited visibility into supplier components and dependencies

  • Difficult to validate vendor claims against real artifacts

  • Manual collection and review slows procurement

  • No standardized way to assess supplier risk levels
