This repository contains official third-party standards that have been transformed into CycloneDX v1.6 requirements. These requirements are intended to document compliance to a standard in a machine readable format that is consistent with the CycloneDX specification.
Purpose | Provide a single, machine‑readable catalogue of well‑known open standards that have been mapped into the CycloneDX v1.6 requirements model. |
Why | • Enables tool‑chains to import a standard as a BOM, verify controls automatically, and report compliance. • Eliminates one‑off parsers for every PDF, spreadsheet or bespoke XML format. • Keeps the source of truth under version control so updates are transparent and traceable. |
Audience | Security engineers, compliance teams, CycloneDX ecosystem tools, CI/CD pipelines. |
