Cybeats debuts BCA Marketplace for simplified SBOM solutions

Cybeats delivers SBOM Studio to a medical device manufacturer in a three-year contract agreement 

Cybeats Technologies unveiled its new BCA Marketplace designed to aggregate ‘Binary Composition Analysis’ (BCA) and Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) vendors. The marketplace simplifies the purchasing process for organizations, offering high-quality SBOM generation tools in one centralized location.

The company officially launched BCA Marketplace on Monday at RSAC 2024. The initial community of BCA vendors, starting with CodeSecure has already joined the Marketplace, which will help users fast-track their compliance. The addition of Cybeats’ second product, on top of SBOM Studio, also provides the opportunity to strengthen industry ties with leading cybersecurity vendors and mutually benefit from streamlined access to customer needs.

“Our new BCA Marketplace is a true one-stop shop for SBOM generation tools that strengthen the organizational capabilities and efficiencies for managing security risks,” said Dmitry Raidman, CTO of Cybeats in a media statement. “We’re bringing the leading vendors together onto our unified technology platform so that we can provide customers instantaneous access with superior product selection. Gone are the days of waiting weeks for quality SBOM generation. The marketplace facilitates the generation of high-quality SBOMs in minutes, for streamlined security operations and enhanced regulatory compliance,” 

Cybeats’ BCA Marketplace unites vendors, to empower organizations with a single, frictionless platform that provides democratized access to advanced software security solutions. 

Some highlights of the initial BCA Marketplace include:

  • Instant Results: Generate high-quality SBOMs in minutes
  • Ready-Made Regulatory Compliance: SBOMs generated through the BCA Marketplace are designed to meet industry standards, accelerating your path to compliance
  • Seamless Integration: Effortlessly generate SBOMs, improving compliance and efficiencies with no complex integration or technical expertise required

“The world of SBOMs is rapidly maturing including the need for SBOMs generated from Post-Production Applications. Security professionals deserve and now expect easy access to SBOM generation, and we’re excited to partner with Cybeats to make achieving compliance as easy as possible for our customers,” said Vince Arneja, CPO at CodeSecure.

“For SBOMs to be an effective mechanism for aiding in the security of the software supply chain at scale, they must be operationalized, and integrated into daily operations, existing tools, and security ecosystems,” said Katie Norton, Research Manager, DevSecOps and Software Supply Chain Security at IDC. “Solutions like Cybeats BCA Marketplace can help organizations establish a holistic, efficient, and quality-driven approach to SBOM generation and management. Cooperative approaches such as this can help solve a long-standing need for security practitioners – ultimately leading to a more secure software supply chain.”

New EU Regulation, Increased Need for SBOMs

New January 2024 cybersecurity regulation by the European Union’s (EU) Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) puts forth that failing to comply with SBOM reporting could lead to a €15 million administrative fine or 2.5% of an organization’s gross sales, whichever is higher. This enhanced oversight by the EU increases the need for SBOM, and for solutions that facilitate compliance with these new requirements. 

The new CRA covers all products with software as well with a direct or indirect connection to a device or network, which includes standalone software as well as the Internet of Things (IoT), operational technology (OT), or other tangible devices, such as televisions, laptops, baby monitors, etc., for both enterprises and consumers.
