= Introduction =

Dependency-Track is an open-source Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tool that helps organizations manage and secure their software supply chain. It automatically generates and maintains a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for projects, continuously monitoring dependencies for known vulnerabilities. In addition, it tracks license compliance of open-source components, giving teams greater visibility and control. By integrating seamlessly into DevOps and CI/CD pipelines, Dependency-Track makes it easier to embed security throughout the development lifecycle.

Unlike other tools, login is only possible if the user has a valid license and is assigned a role in at least one Dependency-Track project.

After completing the preconditions, a project in Dependency-Track, which is part of the DevOps-as-a-Service toolchain, can be accessed via the DevOps Portal or directly through a URL.

You can also access Dependency-Track directly using the following link format:

If you are not already logged in to another tool in the toolchain or the DevOps portal, then you have to login using your configured SSO credentials.
