Anchore Enterprise vs Exodos Labs

Anchore Enterprise is an SBOM-powered platform for continuous software supply-chain security and compliance. It generates software bills of materials for containers, source code, and filesystems in Syft, CycloneDX, and SPDX formats, then continuously scans those SBOMs for vulnerabilities, secrets, and malware. Policy packs cover NIST, FedRAMP, and DISA, while policy-as-code rules use JSON instructions that can be version controlled in Git. Runtime inventory can cover images running across EKS, ECS, AKE, GKE, and OpenShift clusters. Deployment options include an AWS machine image or container images installed with Helm on Kubernetes-compatible platforms, including air-gapped environments. Every feature and operation can be instrumented through an API. Integrations include major CI, registry, and cloud services such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Amazon ECR, Azure DevOps, Docker Hub, and Harbor. It supports API, Linux, self-hosted, and web environments. Pricing is on request; there is no free plan, but a free trial is available.

Exodos Labs manages, shares, and operationalizes software bills of materials (SBOMs) across the software supply chain. It ingests SBOMs from CI/CD pipelines, APIs, and suppliers, tracks them across builds, releases, and products, and applies validation and quality gates. Scans assess vulnerabilities, FOSS license and compliance issues, component health, and geopolitical supply-chain risks. The Community plan supports CycloneDX and SPDX formats. Secure Exchange provides access controls by organization, role, purpose, or time, alongside redaction, request workflows, and audit logs. Integrations include Cloudsmith, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, custom build systems, vulnerability scanners, SIEM platforms, and risk management systems. Deployment options listed are cloud-hosted, private, and hybrid. Community costs nothing and includes one user and one API key. Team costs $29 a month, on annual contracts billed yearly; Professional costs $1,240 a month on annual contracts billed yearly. The platform is aimed at security, compliance, and engineering teams, including organizations in regulated environments.
