#### Prove which NVIDIA CUDA software is inside an artifact

cudabom proves which NVIDIA CUDA software is actually inside an artifact
(Python wheels, shared libraries, executables, and container images) and
turns that evidence into security-grade SBOM, advisory, and VEX data.

It specializes in CUDA component identity (cudart, cuBLAS/cuBLASLt, cuDNN,
NCCL, and more), including statically linked and vendored/renamed copies,
using an explicit evidence model with EXACT / LIKELY / UNKNOWN confidence. It
correlates findings against NVIDIA's machine-readable CSAF security bulletins
and enriches existing Syft/Trivy/PEP 770 SBOMs rather than replacing them.

cudabom never runs code on a GPU and never executes what it scans, so it runs
on any CI runner. Outputs a terminal table, native JSON, CycloneDX 1.6,
CycloneDX VEX, SARIF 2.1.0, and Markdown.

cudabom is an independent project and is not an NVIDIA product. Releases are
Sigstore-signed with SLSA Build Level 3 provenance.

## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install CudaBOM

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go.

For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*.

Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install CudaBOM

To install CudaBOM, simply use the following command:
