What's this blog post about?

Snyk has announced that its Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) tool will now include license information for open-source libraries in projects, as part of their ongoing efforts in Software Supply Chain Security solution. SBOMs are detailed inventories of an application's components and dependencies, which help developers identify potential risks and take necessary steps to address them. The inclusion of license details in Snyk-generated SBOMs will aid in understanding the risks associated with open source licenses and enable better compliance management for legal, risk, and audit teams.
