From Chaos to Clarity: Modern SBOM Practices That Actually Work

Abstract

In this talk, Viktor will walk you through everything you need to know to build a practical and future ready SBOM strategy. He will share his journey from early experimentation with SBOMs, to co-leading the CISA working group on SBOM generation, to building a product designed to solve the real world challenges he uncovered along the way.

You will learn the fundamentals of SBOMs, proven best practices for SBOM generation, and how to manage SBOMs and related security artifacts throughout their life cycles. The session will also highlight what upcoming regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act mean for software producers, and why now is the time to invest in a solid SBOM approach. Whether you are just getting started or looking to refine an existing process, you will leave with clear guidance you can apply immediately.
