FOSSA vs sbomify

FOSSA scans software projects for dependencies, vulnerabilities, and license issues across the development lifecycle. Its open-source dependency analysis covers more than 30 languages, and its policy engine can enforce organization-wide license, security, and quality requirements, including build-blocking rules. Teams can generate, import, export, and manage software bills of materials (SBOMs). Scanning options include CLI and CI/CD workflows, container analysis, snippet detection, Quick Import from code hosts, and enterprise binary and SBOM uploads. Quick Import scans source without running the build, so its results are less complete than a CLI scan. Documented integrations include Jira, GitHub, Slack, Bitbucket, GitLab, APIs, and OIDC providers. FOSSA offers web, Linux, API, and self-hosted options; customers can operate its on-premises deployment using Kubernetes and Helm. Free includes five projects, 10 contributing developers, and five imported SBOMs. Business is listed at $2,020,710 a year; Enterprise pricing is custom and not listed.

sbomify is a security artifact hub for generating, managing, analyzing and sharing software bills of materials (SBOMs) and compliance documents. It supports CycloneDX and SPDX, with generation workflows for 17 ecosystems, container images, directory scans and Yocto/OpenEmbedded builds. For CI/CD, its Action supports GitHub, while documented Docker workflows cover GitLab, Bitbucket and other systems. Vulnerability analysis integrations include Google OSV and OWASP Dependency-Track. Trust Centers let teams share security materials through a custom domain, with public or private access. Supported materials include SBOMs, VEX and CBOM artifacts, security certifications, penetration test reports and compliance attestations. Trust Center content is also available programmatically through the Transparency Exchange API. The open-source platform can be self-hosted or used as a hosted service. The free Community plan limits accounts to one product, five components, public documents and one user. Business costs $159/mo (annual); Enterprise pricing is by custom quote.
