Friends and folks working with #SBOMs - how do you conceptually think about them in terms of ingesting them into tools?
I.e. I like to think of an SBOM having a source repository or component it relates to, but sometimes you don't know that up front, and all you have is the result of a scan, which could be the source repo, a container image, or a built binary.
Considering whether:
- I try to guess what repo/component it is based on the filename
- Just store the filename in the database and allow querying with that (and leave repo info optional)
- Retrieve metadata from the SBOM that known tools use to define this
- Some 4th option?
Trying to tweak how Dependency Management Data works with SBOMs and trying to find how other folks do it and consider them
