About this talk

Since launching in 2017, CycloneDX has gained popularity as a lightweight software bill of materials (SBOM) specification. And, that growth has only accelerated in the months since CycloneDX was highlighted in the U.S. government's 2021 cybersecurity executive order as an approved SBOM export format.

We'll discuss: -Elements of a CycloneDX SBOM -Top CycloneDX SBOM use cases -CycloneDX vs. SPDX and other popular SBOM formats -Best practices for generating and importing CycloneDX SBOMs
