Software Assurance Reference Attribute (SARA)

Software Assurance Reference Attribute (SARA) is a standardized way for organizations to document key information about their software components. It provides a structured way to record details like licensing, security features, and compliance status, helping teams manage risks and ensure software quality. Think of it as a detailed profile or "passport" for software parts, making it easier to verify their trustworthiness and maintain consistent security and licensing standards across projects. This improves transparency, reduces legal and security risks, and streamlines software management processes.
