Interlynk Adds Support for ISO/IEC 5230:2020 Automating Open Source License Compliance

Interlynk SBOM Automation platform adds capabilities for automating open-source license compliance with ISO standard 5230:2020 and extends SPDX support.

MENLO PARK, CA, UNITED STATES, December 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Interlynk, the leading provider of SBOM (Software Bill of Materials) automation solutions, announced today that its platform now supports ISO/IEC 5230:2020 - the International Standard for Open Source License Compliance. Additionally, the platform offers full compatibility with SPDX, including SPDX-Lite and the latest SPDX3 standards, further strengthening its position as the most comprehensive SBOM management solution for open-source compliance and software governance.

ISO/IEC 5230:2020, created by the community-driven OpenChain Project, sets the benchmark for open-source license compliance by establishing best practices for software supply chains. Interlynk’s adoption of this standard with the SPDX format enables organizations to efficiently manage open-source licenses, minimize compliance risks, and automate collaboration across vendors in the software supply chains.

“Interlynk has been working on end-to-end SBOM management that aligns with the requirements of OpenChain ISO/IEC 5230,” says Shane Coughlan, OpenChain General Manager. “Their public messaging about their automation solution and its compatibility is welcomed by the OpenChain Project. A diversity of choice is important, and greater community awareness of options is of benefit to everyone.”

"Interlynk is committed to supporting standards that drive transparency and accountability in software supply chains while improving compliance efficiency for organizations," added Ritesh Noronha, Co-Founder of Interlynk. "With our platform's expanded support for ISO/IEC 5230:2020 with SPDX, Interlynk now empowers organizations to shift left in software license compliance, driving trust and efficiency."

- ISO/IEC 5230:2020 Support: Ensure compliance with the OpenChain Specification for open-source license management across the software supply chain.

- Automated License Risk Analysis: Automate detection, monitoring, and resolution of licenses and obligations across complex dependency chains.

These enhancements complement Interlynk’s existing capabilities for SBOM generation, secure storage, continuous monitoring, risk-based vulnerability management, and automated compliance reporting.
