AIBOM Resources: AI Supply Chain Transparency
How to document the models, datasets, frameworks and third-party AI services in your environment, and connect that record to regulation, procurement and risk.
Fundamentals
Guide · 6 minWhat is an AIBOM? The AI Bill of Materials explainedWhat an AIBOM (AI Bill of Materials) is, what it records about models, datasets and AI services, the formats that encode it and the rules that expect it.Explainer · 3 minAI supply-chain risks: models, data, software and servicesAI supply-chain risks mapped to OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, MITRE ATLAS and NIST AI 100-2: poisoned data, backdoored models, weak provenance and more.
Tools & platforms
Guide · 4 minAIBOM platforms: evaluation criteria for enterprise buyersHow to evaluate an AIBOM platform: format support, discovery coverage, validation policies, lineage, risk correlation, approvals, evidence and deployment.Guide · 4 minAIBOM tools: open-source options for generating, validating and securing AI BOMsOpen-source AIBOM tools for generating, validating, signing and scanning AI bills of materials: OWASP AIBOM Generator, CycloneDX CLI, spdx3-validate and more.
Operations
Guide · 3 minAIBOM generation: discovering models, datasets and AI servicesHow to generate an AIBOM: where to find models, datasets and external AI services, what to capture for each, and how to keep generated records accurate.Guide · 3 minAIBOM management: model registry, versions and approvalsHow to manage AIBOMs over time: link them to a model registry, version every change, run approvals before production, and keep records auditors can trust.Explainer · 3 minAIBOM validation: schema, policy and provenance checksWhat AIBOM validation should check: schema conformance, required-field policies such as CERT-In's, internal consistency and provenance of listed models.
Comparisons
Comparison · 3 minAIBOM vs SBOM: what changes when the component is a modelAIBOM vs SBOM compared: scope, required fields, formats, change frequency and risk. Why AI systems need both, and how the two bills of materials connect.Comparison · 3 minAIBOM vs model cards and datasheets for datasetsHow AIBOMs differ from model cards (Mitchell et al., 2019) and datasheets for datasets (Gebru et al.), and how to use all three together in AI documentation.Comparison · 3 minSPDX 3.0 AI profile vs CycloneDX ML-BOMSPDX 3.0 AI and Dataset profiles compared with CycloneDX ML-BOM: history, data model, key fields for models and datasets, validation and when to choose each.
Compliance
Compliance · 3 minAI procurement requirements for vendors and model providersWhat to require from AI vendors and model providers: AIBOM delivery, required fields, update triggers, data-use limits and security evidence, with clauses.Compliance · 4 minAIBOM compliance: EU AI Act, CERT-In, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001 and Indian guidanceHow an AIBOM supports compliance with the EU AI Act and AI Omnibus dates, CERT-In guidelines, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, MeitY guidelines and RBI FREE-AI.Compliance · 3 minCERT-In AIBOM requirements: Table 10 minimum elements explainedCERT-In AIBOM requirements from the Version 2.0 guidelines of 9 July 2025: definition, benefits, Table 10 elements and mapping to CycloneDX and SPDX.Compliance · 4 minEU AI Act documentation duties and how an AIBOM supports themEU AI Act documentation duties for high-risk AI and GPAI models, updated for AI Omnibus dates, and how an AIBOM supports Annex IV and Article 53.
Industries
Industry · 3 minAIBOM for Indian enterprises: CERT-In, MeitY, RBI and DPDPWhat Indian enterprises should know about AIBOMs: CERT-In v2.0 elements, MeitY AI Governance Guidelines, RBI FREE-AI and DPDP Rules, with a starting plan.Industry · 3 minAIBOM for banks and financial servicesHow banks can use an AIBOM to address RBI FREE-AI recommendations, revised model risk guidance and EU AI Act rules for credit scoring and insurance.Industry · 3 minAIBOM for government and the public sectorHow government bodies can use AIBOMs for AI procurement, public AI inventories and high-risk public-service AI under Indian, EU and US guidance.
