Generate

Coming soon: standalone SBOM generation. A future release of Anchore Enterprise will let AnchoreCTL produce an SBOM locally and write it to a file or stream without storing the result in Anchore Enterprise — neither image-catalog entry nor app-version asset, just a portable file.

Anchore Enterprise generates SBOMs as part of attaching an asset to an app version. Submit the asset, Anchore Enterprise produces its SBOM, and the SBOM is stored against the version where it becomes available for vulnerability analysis, policy evaluation, search, and export. Generation and storage are one step.
