NAME

SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum::ComponentType - Component Type

SYNOPSIS

use SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum qw(COMPONENT_TYPE);

say COMPONENT_TYPE->APPLICATION;


use SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum::ComponentType;

say SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum::ComponentType->LIBRARY;


use SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum::ComponentType qw(:all);

say OPERATING_SYSTEM;

DESCRIPTION

SBOM::CycloneDX::Enum::ComponentType is ENUM package used by SBOM::CycloneDX::Component.

Specifies the type of component. For software components, classify as application if no more specific appropriate classification is available or cannot be determined for the component.

CONSTANTS

  • APPLICATION, A software application. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_software for information about applications.

  • FRAMEWORK, A software framework. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_framework for information on how frameworks vary slightly from libraries.

  • LIBRARY, A software library. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_(computing) for information about libraries. All third-party and open source reusable components will likely be a library. If the library also has key features of a framework, then it should be classified as a framework. If not, or is unknown, then specifying library is recommended.",

  • CONTAINER, A packaging and/or runtime format, not specific to any particular technology, which isolates software inside the container from software outside of a container through virtualization technology. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS-level_virtualization.

  • PLATFORM, A runtime environment that interprets or executes software. This may include runtimes such as those that execute bytecode, just-in-time compilers, interpreters, or low-code/no-code application platforms.

  • OPERATING_SYSTEM, A software operating system without regard to deployment model (i.e. installed on physical hardware, virtual machine, image, etc). Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system.

  • DEVICE, A hardware device such as a processor or chip-set. A hardware device containing firmware SHOULD include a component for the physical hardware itself and another component of type 'firmware' or 'operating-system' (whichever is relevant), describing information about the software running on the device. See also the list of known device properties.

  • DEVICE_DRIVER, A special type of software that operates or controls a particular type of device. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_driver.

  • FIRMWARE, A special type of software that provides low-level control over a device's hardware. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firmware.

  • FILE, A computer file. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_file for information about files.

  • MACHINE_LEARNING_MODEL, A model based on training data that can make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed to do so.

  • DATA, A collection of discrete values that convey information.

  • CRYPTOGRAPHIC_ASSET, A cryptographic asset including algorithms, protocols, certificates, keys, tokens, and secrets.
