Lineaje, a software supply chain security management leader, has introduced an innovative solution called BOMbots, powered by Lineaje AI. These AI-based automation bots analyze deep software bill of materials (SBOMs) to provide optimized recommendations and remediations across the entire software supply chain. By leveraging BOMbots, organizations can achieve reduced software maintenance investments and bolster their security posture. The AI tool acts as a “co-pilot,” assisting users in identifying and mitigating software security and maintenance issues through specialized analysis and human-like conversation.
BOMbots address the challenges arising from the increasing use of open-source and third-party dependencies in software development, which has complicated software maintenance. The bots offer workflows for discovery, recommendations, and automated remediation throughout the software supply chain, encompassing both the organization’s internal code and external dependencies.
Key BOMbots include the Compatibility BOMbot, which aligns software components for compatibility to reduce effort; the Maintainability BOMbot, which identifies risky and unmaintained dependencies; and the Vulnerability BOMbot, which prioritizes vulnerabilities based on executability and security parameters, automating fixes and upgrades.
Lineaje AI has also enhanced its flagship products SBOM360 and SBOM360 Hub, with additions such as the Supply Chain Learnbot, Insightbot, and Classical Automationbot, aiming to optimize software maintenance and security using SBOM data.
Javed Hasan, CEO and co-founder of Lineaje Inc., emphasized that BOMbots can lead to up to 30% reduction in software maintenance investments, offering a significant improvement beyond compliance.
