Know What's In Your Code

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every library you import, every package that you pull
Dependencies cascading down like dominos in full
But hidden in your codebase lurk components you don't know
Vulnerabilities waiting in the depths below
Your application's family tree sprawls wider than you think
One compromised ingredient breaks the whole supply chain link

[Chorus]
SBOM spells out what's inside
Software Bill Of Materials guide
Scan your apps, scan containers too
Infrastructure inventory through and through
Know your components, version tags
Before security weakness sags
SBOM - map it all
Know what's in your code before you fall

[Verse 2]
Container images layer up with borrowed, reused parts
Base images from registries with their own component charts  
That Alpine Linux foundation holds a thousand moving gears
OpenSSL and curl libraries accumulated through the years
Generate your manifest before deployment day arrives
Catalog every artifact on which your system relies

[Chorus]
SBOM spells out what's inside
Software Bill Of Materials guide
Scan your apps, scan containers too
Infrastructure inventory through and through
Know your components, version tags
Before security weakness sags
SBOM - map it all
Know what's in your code before you fall

[Bridge]
Terraform modules, Helm charts spinning
Third-party licenses, compliance winning
Automated scanners, CI pipeline flowing
Crystal visibility, always knowing
Which supplier built that crucial function
When zero-day hits at security junction

[Verse 3]
Infrastructure as code hides dependencies deep within
Cloud provider APIs and modules where attacks begin
Your Kubernetes cluster runs on images you never built
Supply chain compromise leaves organizations with guilt
Generate those SBOMs automatically each release
Component transparency brings supply chain peace

[Chorus]
SBOM spells out what's inside
Software Bill Of Materials guide
Scan your apps, scan containers too
Infrastructure inventory through and through
Know your components, version tags
Before security weakness sags
SBOM - map it all
Know what's in your code before you fall

[Outro]
Map your digital ingredients
Transparency's your defense
SBOM - know what's in your code
