Ortelius vs SBOM Manager

Ortelius connects software inventory to deployment information so teams can trace packages and versions to the endpoints where they run. It accepts SPDX and CycloneDX SBOMs and can create an SBOM with Syft when one is missing. It checks inventory against OSV.dev for newly disclosed vulnerabilities every ten minutes, tracing affected packages through artifacts and deployments to endpoints. Its post-deployment security dashboard brings together project security signals, versioned SBOMs, live deployments and vulnerability detection, and correlates OpenSSF Scorecard results with deployed packages and versions. Ortelius describes the dashboard as continuously aligned with NIST 800-218 SSDF. The product is available as SaaS or on-premise/self-hosted software, with REST and GraphQL APIs protected by JWT middleware. A GitHub App supports installation connections and repository onboarding, but onboarding does not attach an SBOM. Ortelius OS Free costs nothing, with up to 5 components; DeployHub Enterprise costs $40 a month, billed $40 / component / month.

SBOM Manager is a free, MIT-licensed command-line tool for maintaining collections of Software Bills of Materials. It records components used in releases or builds and lets users check whether particular components and versions appear. Search tools include module lookup, project filtering, repository listings, and update-history views. Inputs can be SPDX 2.3 Tag/Value or JSON, CycloneDX 1.4 XML or JSON, CSV, and directory listings. Results can print to the console or go to a file in console or CSV formats. Repository archives can be exported and imported for restoration. The project describes continuous-integration and security-audit use. Vulnerability scanning requires a separately configured scanner that accepts an SPDX Tag/Value file; an example uses cve-bin-tool. The Linux tool requires Python 3.7 or later and installs with pip install sbom-manager. It cannot judge SBOM validity or completeness, or decide whether vulnerabilities require fixes.
