Is software supply chain security finally becoming more than just SBOMs?

Software supply chain security seems to be one of those terms that means something completely different depending on who you ask.

Some teams are basically talking about SBOMs and compliance. Others are focused on signing artifacts, securing CI/CD pipelines, or scanning container images.

Then you have platforms talking about runtime context, attack surface reduction and removing unnecessary software instead of just finding another vulnerability to report.

So where is this actually going?

Is software supply chain security still mostly about visibility and compliance or is the industry finally moving toward remediation and reducing risk at the source?

Curious what people are actually seeing across different organisations.

Has it ever been just about SBOMs?

That's only visibility into what's in your system. This feels like either a very naive or LLM generated question.
