Matt Mireles is a contributor and maintainer for the OWASP CycloneDX project, which is recognized as a flagship project of the OWASP Foundation. CycloneDX is a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) standard that enhances supply chain security by providing a structured way to document the components and dependencies of software applications. This standard is widely used across various industries, including consumer electronics, healthcare, and critical infrastructure, to improve software security practices.

The CycloneDX project focuses on creating standards in various formats, such as XML, JSON, and Protocol Buffers, and it supports a range of tools for generating and utilizing SBOMs. The project aims to foster a collaborative environment for developing security standards and is backed by the OWASP Foundation and Ecma International, which further enhances its credibility and adoption in the industry.1234

The foundation has a global reach with numerous local chapters and a large membership base, emphasizing its commitment to fostering secure software development practices.567
