Keysight SBOM Manager Launch Strengthens Cybersecurity Compliance Efforts

Cybersecurity Compliance

Keysight SBOM Manager is gaining attention as Keysight Technologies, Inc., introduces a new solution to address global cybersecurity compliance needs. The company launched Keysight SBOM Manager to help organizations manage software bills of materials and meet regulatory demands.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. announced the launch of Keysight SBOM Manager. The solution helps businesses follow new cybersecurity rules, like the Cyber Resilience Act in the European Union. It also gives you a single system for making, managing, and using SBOMs throughout the life cycle of a digital product.

As cybersecurity laws change, businesses need to know what software parts are in their products and tell people about them. So, global frameworks now require that software and firmware use be open and clear. The EU Cyber Resilience Act, U.S. Executive Order 14028, and FDA cybersecurity requirements all stress the need for SBOM adoption. Additionally, new frameworks in Asia make this requirement even stronger.

Keysight SBOM Manager solves these problems by giving you more information about digital products. It looks at binary software, firmware, containers, and other parts, even those that are closed-source dependencies. Furthermore, the solution continuously correlates SBOMs with trusted vulnerability databases. It also filters irrelevant vulnerabilities and supports Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange (VEX). As a result, teams can focus on critical risks instead of excessive data.

The platform also makes SBOM sharing safe and scalable. It uses role-based access control and version tracking to ensure transparency. Consequently, organizations can meet both regulatory and customer expectations. The solution also validates and standardizes SBOM data to align with evolving compliance standards. Moreover, it allows organizations to map SBOMs to deployed assets for real-world visibility.

Growing Importance of SBOM in Cybersecurity Regulations

Naoki Shimazaki, Fourth Design Department, Director, Software-Defined Solutions Division, Connective Engineering Division, Hitachi Industry & Control Solutions, Ltd., said:

“The use of SBOMs is becoming an essential element in monitoring system security risks, including software composition management and supply chain risk management. We believe that solutions such as these, which enable visibility into system components and support vulnerability impact analysis, have significant potential to strengthen organizations’ cybersecurity efforts.”

Dmitry Raidman, Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, CyBeats, said:

“While companies innovate at the speed of AI, they must also put tighter governance and stronger controls in place, especially as modern products increasingly rely on open source, third-party components, and AI-assisted development. Supply chain transparency and accountability are now paramount. To meet growing global regulations, organizations need the ability to continuously generate trustworthy SBOMs, correlate them with actionable vulnerability intelligence, apply VEX to reduce noise, and automate response workflows at scale. As transparency expectations expand across software, AI, cryptography, and hardware, visibility into the full digital product stack is becoming essential for secure-by-design development, regulatory readiness, and customer trust.”

Ram Periakaruppan, Vice President and General Manager, Network Test & Security Solutions at Keysight, said:

“As cybersecurity regulations mature, SBOMs are becoming a prerequisite for doing business globally. Keysight SBOM Manager helps organizations meet these requirements with confidence by bringing accuracy, consistency, and scalability to SBOM generation and management.”

The EU Cyber Resilience Act will take effect in 2026. It requires manufacturers to manage cybersecurity risks and maintain SBOMs. Additionally, organizations must report actively exploited vulnerabilities within 24 hours. Meanwhile, similar regulations already exist under U.S. Executive Order 14028 and FDA guidelines. Countries such as India, Japan, and South Korea are also advancing SBOM requirements. Therefore, non-compliance may result in penalties, delayed approvals, or restricted market access.

Keysight SBOM Manager combines SBOM generation, vulnerability intelligence, secure sharing, and compliance validation in one platform. As a result, organizations can reduce regulatory risks and improve response strategies. Ultimately, the solution strengthens trust across global digital supply chains.
