Open Source License Risk reviews the licenses attached to open-source components. It flags licenses that may pose a risk and produces a software bill of materials.

## What it is

Every open-source component ships under a license that sets rules for how it may be used. Some licenses carry obligations that can create legal or compliance risk. This module identifies those licenses and records every component in a software bill of materials (SBOM).

## Key capabilities

- Flags risky open-source licenses.
- Generates a software bill of materials (SBOM).
- Lists the components a project depends on.
- Maps each component to its license.
- Helps teams understand license obligations.

## Who it's for

It fits teams that need to track the licenses in their software. It helps engineering and compliance functions see license risk in one place. It suits any project that uses open-source code.
