Software bills of materials or SBOMs are critical to software security and supply chain risk management. Ideally, regardless of the SBOM tool, the output should be consistent for a given piece of software. But that is not always the case. The divergence of results can undermine confidence in software quality and security. In our latest podcast from the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute (SEI), Jessie Jamieson, a senior cyber risk engineer in the SEI’s CERT Division, sits down with Matt technical director of Risk and Resilience in CERT, to talk about how to achieve more accuracy in SBOMs and present and future SEI research on this front.
