In this episode, host Paul Roberts chats with Beau Woods, Founder & CEO of Stratigos Security, about the history of the software bill of materials (SBOM) – from its beginnings, to its modern-day use, to efforts underway to adapt it for the future. SBOMs have exploded in popularity within the past two years, and are oftentimes considered synonymous with software supply chain security. However, SBOMs are not a new tool, and while they’re important – they certainly aren’t the end-all-be-all for mitigating modern threats to software supply chains. Woods will explain in this conversation how SBOMs have taken center stage in 2024, and how they will continue to impact the future of cybersecurity.
