As software supply chain security becomes increasingly critical, the need for comprehensive visibility into the components used in IoT applications has intensified. In response to this demand, Espressif Systems has developed the esp-idf-sbom tool. This presentation provides an overview of esp-idf-sbom, a utility designed to streamline the generation of Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) files for applications developed using the Espressif IoT Development Framework (ESP-IDF). The tool automates the creation of SBOMs in the Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) format and integrates vulnerability scanning capabilities, leveraging the Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) to cross-reference components against the National Vulnerability Database (NVD). This talk offers insights into the features, benefits, and practical applications of esp-idf-sbom, highlighting its role in fortifying the security and integrity of IoT ecosystems.
