Trusted Sharing & Ecosystem

Exodos Labs Capabilities

Identify, manage, and control open source license risk at scale

Open source software is foundational to modern development — but unmanaged license obligations introduce legal, operational, and commercial risk.

Secure, controlled SBOM exchange across your software ecosystem

SBOMs are rarely used by a single team or organization. They must be shared — with customers, suppliers, regulators, and partners — often under strict confidentiality and compliance requirements.

Exodos Labs provides a trusted, auditable framework for SBOM exchange, enabling organizations to share the right information, with the right parties, under clearly defined controls.

From ad-hoc file exchange to governed collaboration

Today, SBOM sharing often happens through email attachments, file transfers, or one-off portals — creating security risks, audit gaps, and operational overhead.

Exodos Labs replaces fragmented sharing with a governed exchange model:

  • Access is explicit and controlled

  • Data is shared deliberately, not copied

  • Every interaction is logged and traceable

This allows organizations to collaborate across complex software supply chains without sacrificing security or control.

What Trusted Sharing & Ecosystem includes

Granular Access Control

  • Attribute-based access control (ABAC) for SBOMs and inventory items

  • Define who can view, request, or receive specific SBOM data

  • Restrict access by organization, role, purpose, or time

Secure External Sharing

  • Share SBOMs with customers, suppliers, auditors, and regulators

  • Avoid insecure file transfers and unmanaged copies

  • Maintain a single authoritative source of truth

 

Redaction & Data Minimization

  • Share only the information required for a given purpose

  • Obfuscate sensitive component or supplier details

  • Balance transparency with intellectual property protection

 

Request & Response Workflows

  • Structured workflows for requesting SBOMs from suppliers

  • Track request status and responsiveness

  • Maintain a complete history of exchanges

Full Auditability

  • Immutable logs of all sharing and access events

  • Trace who accessed what data, when, and why

  • Support contractual, regulatory, and forensic requirements

How it works

Trusted sharing becomes repeatable, secure, and verifiable.

Define sharing policies

Organizations specify who can access which SBOMs and under what conditions.

Share or request

SBOMs and Inventories are shared or requested through controlled workflows.

Enforce controls

Access, redaction, and permissions are applied automatically.

Audit everything

All interactions are logged, creating a complete, defensible record.

Trusted Sharing & Ecosystem

Enable secure SBOM collaboration across your entire software supply chain—with full control and transparency

Designed for multi-party software ecosystems

Modern software supply chains span many organizations with different obligations, incentives, and trust levels.

Exodos Labs supports this reality by:

  • Enabling collaboration without requiring full trust

  • Allowing each party to retain control over their data

  • Providing transparency without over-exposure

This makes Exodos suitable for complex ecosystems involving vendors, integrators, regulators, and customers.

Integrated across the Exodos Labs platform

Trusted Sharing builds on:

  • SBOM Operations: ensuring accurate, versioned data

  • Compliance: providing evidence of controlled disclosure

  • Security: reducing risk in third-party data exchange

All shared data remains part of the same auditable system of record.

Who this capability is for

Trusted Sharing & Ecosystem is used by:

  • Organizations distributing software to customers or partners

  • Enterprises consuming third-party software

  • Regulated industries requiring controlled disclosure

  • Security and compliance teams managing supplier relationships

 

Sharing without losing control

Transparency and control do not have to be mutually exclusive.

Exodos Labs enables organizations to exchange SBOMs confidently, with clear governance, traceability, and security - across the entire software ecosystem.
