## Application for creating a new project at Sandbox stage | ||

### Mission of the project | ||
|
||
SBOMit's goal is to provide SBOMs to end users with minimal effort that provide cryptographic validation of the steps performed in the software | ||
supply chain. This differs from other SBOM efforts in that the data in the SBOM is validated cryptographically using [in-toto](in-toto.io) | ||
link metadata and layouts, which provides a strong threat model while providing a robust set of guarantees about the SBOM's accuracy. | ||
|
||
Specific goals include: | ||
|
||
* Maintain compatibility with existing SBOM formats (could generate existing SBOMs), and ideally operable with SPDX, CycloneDX, and similar efforts | ||
* Define use cases and outcomes (end user ux) including machine readable | ||
* Emphasize usability / on-boarding for users. Acknowledged as critical by many stakeholders. | ||
* Cryptographic verification that exactly the steps in the verifiable SBOM were performed | ||
* Threat model of an attacker that can compromise any part of the software supply chain (e.g., Section 2.2 of https://www.usenix.org/system/files/sec19-torres-arias.pdf ) | ||
* Define which pieces of the Verifiable SBOM are cryptographically verifiable | ||
* Be applicable anywhere (not just cloud native)! | ||
* Utilize in-toto delivered bundle for distribution of a single file | ||
* Optionally enabling the capture of reasonable information about the runtime environment of the supply chain steps including pre-build, post-build, and all other portions | ||
* Optionally enabling the capture of the output of scanning tools, etc. that may make inferences. Note that these may be based upon incomplete and / or incorrect information, but surfacing this information may be useful. | ||
* Provide a clear specification that other groups can implement for Verifiable SBOMs | ||
* Provide exemplars of the tooling needed to generate and process Verifiable SBOMs | ||
* Enable users of Verifiable SBOMs to be able to understand clearly what steps were performed, possibly via plug-ins through things like Testify, SLSA, FRSCA, etc. | ||
* Multi-language tooling | ||
|
||
Non-Goals: | ||
* Picking a winning SBOM format (SPDX, CycloneDX, etc.) | ||
* Recursing into components like the packages inside of a container image when the build process does not otherwise do so. | ||
* Knowing that an individual action is actually a good security practice | ||
* Assertions about the quality of the implementation of the tool / security processes describing how the SBOM or artifact came to exist | ||
