• View the list of components identified, and export the resulting software Bill of Materials in SPDX and CycloneDX formats
• Access enhanced vulnerability information, including severity scoring, exploit details, remediation guidance, external references, and vulnerability tags to help prioritize fixing critical vulnerabilities quickly
• Leverage guidance on license obligations, such as actions that are required or prohibited
• Use custom policy configuration to define OSS, license, and security policies up front, and automate enforcement across the software development life cycle by integrating into existing toolchains
