Faster path from security intent to SBOM artefact

Description

What is the Faster path from security intent course about?

Security and development teams are misaligned on SBOM generation. Manual processes create bottlenecks. Review cycles stall updates. The result: delayed compliance, brittle artefacts, and missed integration opportunities.

What situation is the Faster path from security intent for?

What do you take away from the Faster path from security intent course?
