Software Composition Analysis (SCA) and SBOM Services in India

Most modern applications are largely open-source code that your team did not write. Software Composition Analysis (SCA) inventories every direct and transitive dependency, matches it against vulnerability and licence databases, and tells you what to upgrade first.

Overview

How SecOpsTool Delivers SCA

For regulated Indian organisations, SCA is also how you produce the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) referred to in SEBI CSCRF and the CERT-In SBOM guidelines. SecOpsTool supplies and integrates the tooling and helps you turn SBOM generation into a repeatable process.

What Is Covered

  • Continuous CVE monitoring and alerts
  • Transitive dependency vulnerability detection
  • Open-source licence compliance (GPL, MIT, Apache)
  • SBOM generation in CycloneDX and SPDX formats
  • Automated fix pull requests for vulnerable packages
  • Container and Docker image scanning
How It Works

From First Call to Working Security Control

  1. 1

    Inventory

    Every repository, package manager and container image is scanned to build a complete list of direct and transitive components.

  2. 2

    Risk triage

    Findings are prioritised by severity, exploit availability and whether a fixed version exists, so teams start with what matters.

  3. 3

    Licence policy

    Licence obligations are checked against a policy agreed with your legal team, and violations are flagged before release.

  4. 4

    SBOM generation

    SBOMs are produced automatically on every build in CycloneDX or SPDX format and stored for audit.

  5. 5

    Continuous monitoring

    New vulnerabilities in components you already ship raise alerts and, where supported, automated fix pull requests.

FAQ

SCA: Frequently Asked Questions

A Software Bill of Materials is a machine-readable list of every component inside an application, with versions, suppliers and licences. It lets you answer quickly whether you are affected when a new vulnerability such as Log4Shell is announced.

SEBI's CSCRF asks regulated entities to maintain SBOMs for critical systems, and CERT-In has published technical guidelines on SBOM. Requirements differ by sector, so check the circulars that apply to you. We can help you map them to a practical process.

SAST analyses the code your team writes. SCA analyses the third-party and open-source components you depend on. They find different problems, and most programmes need both.

Yes. We arrange a 14-day trial of the shortlisted tool and help you scan your own repositories and generate a first SBOM.
