Compliance data shouldn't require a scramble

Most teams spend weeks gathering dependency data, chasing license information, and assembling SBOMs before an audit. ActiveState generates that documentation automatically every time a component is built. When the auditor asks, the data is already there.

Signed SBOMs on every artifact

Every package, runtime, and container image includes a complete Software Bill of Materials generated at build time. SBOMs are cryptographically signed and include the full dependency tree, licensing data, and build provenance.

100%

Full dependency trees including transitive and OS-level packages

Cryptographic

Signatures for tamper-proof verification

Machine Readable

Compatible with SPDX and CycloneDX
