SBOMs Alone Can't Reveal the Scope of a Supply Chain Attack

A Shai-Hulud attack demonstrated that software bill of materials (SBOM) documents alone are insufficient for detecting supply chain compromises. Defenders require real-time visibility into production code and affected services to effectively respond when a supply chain threat occurs.

Why it matters: Security teams and incident responders need to move beyond static SBOMs and implement runtime monitoring of production systems to identify and contain supply chain attacks.
