CycloneDX provides a robust framework for documenting and communicating compliance with standards and regulations through attestations. CDXA allows organizations to represent claims about adherence to specific requirements, substantiated with evidence and supporting documentation. This approach automates traditionally manual audit workflows, reducing administrative overhead while maintaining accuracy and trustworthiness.
The machine-readable nature of attestations facilitates alignment between producers, assessors, and regulators, enabling faster compliance validation and more transparent reporting. CDXA also supports advanced use cases, such as documenting non-conformance, mitigation strategies, and counter-evidence, providing a comprehensive view of security and compliance posture. By integrating with other CycloneDX capabilities, organizations can streamline compliance as part of a unified supply chain transparency strategy.
