Objectives
- Standardization of BOM discovery and exchange: Develop a universally applicable API that supports a wide variety of BOM types including SBOM, HBOM, AI/ML-BOM, SaaSBOM, and CBOM.
- Integration with existing protocols: Wherever possible, the API will leverage existing solutions, protocols, and APIs to accelerate development and adoption.
- Support for access control: Enable robust access control mechanisms to manage the distribution of sensitive or restricted artifacts.
Automation compatibility: Ensure the API is suitable for automated systems, eliminating the need for manual interactions for ongoing operations.
