SCVS-INV-03 may way to specify machine readable (or add additional requirement)

garretfick opened this issue · comments

Problem:

It is relatively common that build logs contain information that can be extracted to generating an accurate inventory. However, this is normally difficult to audit.

Recommendation:

Add a new requirement that specifies that the inventory is available in a format that is readily machine readable format (I'm hesitant to specify a particular format).

Wouldn't this be covered by SBOM or should there be a specific call out to being machine readable so that someone doesn't confuse SBOM with spreadsheet (or whatever)?

My thinking was more in ensuring that the inventory is centralized, but perhaps having it centralized is what "inventory" means.

I belive requirement is done.

v1.3 - An accurate inventory of all third-party components is available in a machine-readable format
