Build and audit your PCI DSS SBOM in real time

Static reports don’t catch breaches. Source transparency does. A PCI DSS Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) gives you that transparency before attackers find the gaps. It lists every component, dependency, and library in your codebase. You see the full supply chain, not just your own commits.

PCI DSS now expects software inventories that go beyond names and versions. An SBOM must map components to vulnerabilities, licenses, and vendor data. That means linking entries to CVE records, checking cryptographic modules for compliance, and verifying that no unapproved components run in your cardholder data environment.

Without this mapping, you can’t prove compliance or patch fast. A static PDF won’t do. You need live SBOM generation and tracking. This ensures the list stays current as builds change, dependencies update, and new CVEs appear.

The best PCI DSS SBOM workflows integrate directly into your CI/CD pipeline. Every build produces a fresh inventory. Known exploits get flagged before they hit production. Compliance teams don’t wait for quarterly scans. Developers get feedback as soon as a new library is pulled in.

A strong SBOM process for PCI DSS also handles transitive dependencies. Attackers know that unmanaged third-party code is the fastest path to breach. Your tooling must dig deep into package trees, even across languages and build systems. It must also produce machine-readable formats like SPDX or CycloneDX to keep automation fast and verifiable.

Meeting PCI DSS 4.0 requirements with an SBOM is not optional if you want defensible security. It is the only way to prove you know what runs in your systems and that it meets the standard every minute of the day.
