User Roles

While each user roles will use SBOM360/Hub features differently, they do all share a few basic responsibilities and details.

User Roles

What Are Roles?

Roles describe the positions individuals hold for SBOMs in their organization. These roles determine the permissions you are granted within SBOM360 and SBOM360 Hub. Users can be given more than one role at a time and the Tenant Admin can edit user roles whenever necessary.

Development, Security, & Operations

Users who are assigned the Development, Security, and Operations role are intertwined with both the software producer and consumer positions. Typically, they have goals around creating SBOMs, analyzing SBOM data, and remediating vulnerabilities to produce and distribute high-quality, secure software.

Procurement Manager

The Procurement Manager role relates to consumer tasks. Maintaining a focus on company stakeholder and audience satisfaction is a priority. This role will use SBOM360 and SBOM360 Hub to optimize communication, workflow, and quality of the SBOM assets and results for their product's end-users.

Sales

Sales members are aligned with your organization's consumer position. Since their first concern directly correlates with the finished product, they will likely spend most of their time in SBOM360 Hub managing published SBOMs.

SBOM Approver

The SBOM Approvers are a part of the producer position. Therefore, they are given access to review the SBOMs assigned to them before it gets published to SBOM360 Hub. Approvers are essentially your organization's SBOM quality assurance.
