ISC2 Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional (CSSLP) Practice Question

While responding to a zero-day flaw in an open-source logging library, a DevSecOps engineer uses the organization's software bill of materials (SBOM) to determine which microservices must be patched first. Which characteristic of a well-maintained SBOM makes this rapid scoping possible?

  • It maintains a hierarchical inventory of all third-party and transitive dependencies, allowing you to query which applications include a vulnerable component.

  • It provides runtime monitoring hooks that alert when a component functions outside expected parameters.

  • It records cryptographic hashes for each build artifact, allowing automated validation of file integrity across deployments.

  • It enforces license compliance by automatically blocking components that carry copyleft licenses incompatible with your policy.
